   Has anyone noticed this behavior: as long as the name of the post is correct in the url, it doesn't matter if the category is wrong--it will still redirect to the correct page.

   For example, I have a post in category widgets. My url is:
   http://www.mydomain.com/widgets/redwidget.html

   (yes, I know I don't need .html in the url, but humor me.)

   So if I type this url into my browser:
   http://www.mydomain.com/blah/redwidget.html

   it redirects and changes the url in the browser to
   http://www.mydomain.com/widgets/redwidget.html

   Has it always done this and I just never noticed? I've been trying to Google information about it but haven't found it mentioned anywhere.

   Thanks, Susie
