you need to edit your seo function where you replace spaces with - you must add "/" too

[Chris2k]

here is my full seo function, i modified it when i started my ddl....

function remove_words($str){
  // Special characters to be removed
   $remove = array('!','@','#','$','%','^','*','_','+','{','}','|','"','<','>','?','[',']','\\',';',',','.','/','?','`','=');
   $str = str_replace($remove, "", $str);
   
   // Remove whitespaces and double dashes and replace them with a single dash for SEO
   $replace = array("--");
   $str = str_replace($replace, "-", $str);

   $replace = array("/");
   $str = str_replace($replace, "-", $str);
   
   $replace = array("&");
   $str = str_replace($replace, "and", $str);
   return $str;
}
