[TYPO3-english] RealURL breaks page types - unless I have a shortcut

[Bob]

Hi,

I have a web site with a pretty conventional hierarchical structure, i.e.

Home
- About
- - About the company
- - About our name
- Products
- - Widget
- - Doodah
- Staff
- - Adam
- - Bob

RealURLs are working fine.

However, when I add some templates for additional page types these ONLY 
work in the "About" section - even though all pages use exactly the same 
template!

All the other pages return page type 1 no matter what page type I 
specify - even if it's one that doesn't exist. (Actually, this doesn't 
include the home page; this uses a different template which only has the 
one page type.)

So pages such as
http://mysite.com/about/about-our-name.html?type=2
return page type 2.

But pages such as
http://mysite.com/products/widget/html?type=2
return page type 1!

I have discovered that the key difference between"About" and "Products" 
is that "About" is a shortcut to "About the company". If I make 
"Products" a shortcut to "Widget" then the products section works too.

This gives me a potential workaround (creating a "Introduction" page 
within "Products") but I'd be much happier to find a solution.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks,

Bob
