[Ryan W. Ozimek]

I agree, OpenSEF really gives you a lot of power to create URLs just as
Kirill is looking for.  We happily use it on our site with ease.
 
Best,
Ryan

you may want to look at opensef. I am pretty sure you have a lot of
flexibility with it that you wouldn't have with sefadvanced

These are interesting questions.  As an aside, I think that the lack 
of built in "aliasing" as SEF Advance calls it really hinders
Joomla's potential growth.  It's been difficult for me to convince
small non profits that their URL's might lose some flexibility that 
basic HTML in Apache provides.

For example, if you have:

http://www.svots.edu/Library/index.html

in straight HTML, your user can typically enter the following in the 
address bar:

http://www.svots.edu/Library

and get to the appropriate page.

I haven't found anything in months of forum-hopping that would
describe how to make this functionality work.  The best I can do is 
create an alias in SEF advance like:

http://www.svots.edu/Library/index.html/                        [the
trailing slash is
there on purpose]

Maybe I just need to learn some Apache rewriting rules..? 

Best to all,

Kirill Sokolov
