If you have a joomla 1.5 component that comes with a functioning router.php and want to use it with SEF advanced, you can create a sef_ext.php with the following content:
[replace XXXXXX with the name of the component (after com_)]
<?php
/**
* SEF Advance component extension
*
* This extension will give the SEF Advance style URLs to the example component
* Place this file (sef_ext.php) in the main component directory
* Note that the class must be named: sef_componentname
*

*
* Comments: for SEF Advance > v3.6
**/
require_once("router.php");
class sef_XXXXXX {
/**
* Creates the SEF Advance URL out of the request
* Input: $string, string, The request URL (index.php?option=com_example&Itemid=$Itemid)
* Output: $sefstring, string, SEF Advance URL ($var1/$var2/)
**/
function create ($string)
{
$string = str_replace("&","&",$string);
$o = split("&",substr($string,strpos($string,"index.php?")+10));
foreach($o as $value)
{
$i = split("=",$value);
$ns[$i[0]] = $i[1];
}
$result = XXXXXXBuildRoute($ns);
foreach($result as $val)
{
$retval .= $val;
$retval .= "/";
}
return $retval;
}
/**
* Reverts to the query string out of the SEF Advance URL
* Input:
* $url_array, array, The SEF Advance URL split in arrays
* $pos, int, The position offset for virtual directories (first virtual directory, which is the component name, begins at $pos+1)
* Output: $QUERY_STRING, string, query string (var1=$var1&var2=$var2)
* Note that this will be added to already defined first part (option=com_example&Itemid=$Itemid)
**/
function revert ($url_array, $pos)
{
$na = array();
for ($a=$pos+2;$a<count($url_array);$a++)
{
if (strlen($url_array[$a]) > 0)
{
$na[] = $url_array[$a];

}
$res = XXXXXXParseRoute($na);
