Checking the right URL is being used

http://forums.devshed.com/this-url-...-it-328476.html

Would there be any value in checking before displaying the page that the URL being called is the right one for the thread and 301'ing through to it if not?

If a 'broken' URL was to get out there it might be classed as duplicate content and would maybe give a mixed message with the keywords.

Excellent point. This is fixed, thanks for bringing it to our attention.
