While testing links in the new LDraw File Format Standards section of the web site, I noticed that every time I click on one of the links in the table of contents, it apparently reloads the page. (It definitely communicates with the site, and that communication introduces an extremely noticable delay). The same thing happens every time I hit the back button immediately after having navigated one of these in-document links.
Doing a little digging, I discovered that this is caused by the main site menu URL for the document being blahblahblah/218.html, while the table of contents links are all blahblahblah/218/#yadayada. If I point my browser directly at blahblahblah/218/, instead of blahblahblah/218.html, the problem goes away. Is there any way to use the blahblahblah/218/ version of the URL as the one from the menu, and make that the official URL, instead of the blahblahblah/218.html one?
