A much simpler question than I originally envisaged (the more complicated one may follow).
What apache2 directive allows URLs to omit the trailing .html? Half of my pages work without the html and the other half don't and for the life of me I can't find a directive anywhere that would affect this.
E.g. I can refer to either:-
http://home.isbd.net/sidebar.html http://home.isbd.net/sidebar
and they both work
but if I go to:- http://home.isbd.net/manual/en/mod/core.html http://home.isbd.net/manual/en/mod/core
The first one works but the second one (without the .html) gives a page not found error.
