Hi,

Why does the URL redirection use the "303 See Other" status code, instead of 301 Moved Permanently?

I'm a little concerned about how search engines would handle these redirects.

According to the Documentation, this should use 301, but inspecting the HTTP headers 303 is being returned.

Thanks in advance,

Chris

I simply ask the Joomla! framework to perform the redirection. Latest versions of Joomla! use 303 instead of 301.
