I have been getting some 404 errors coming in from yahoo search going to what should be directory URLs set up in .htaccess to redirect to the .php file.

All the links I have to these directory-type URLs have a trailing '/' , but yahoo is storing some of them and sending me traffic without the trailing slash, as though it is a real directory, but it's not a real directory so is going to 404.

Easy solultion is to duplicate all the .htaccess redirects to cater for both with trailing '/' and without.
