Never a dull moment here in localization land.

<li><object type="text/sitemap">
<param name="Name" value="5UniqueGripperOffset">
<param name="Name" value="5UniqueGripperOffset">

<param name="Name" value="5UniqueGripperOffset(XYZ)">
<param name="Name" value="5UniqueGripperOffset(XYZ)">
<param name="Local" value="5UniqueGripperOffset_XYZ.htm">
</object>

Anyway, the RH project seems to be duplicating code. Any ideas what's causing this and what's the best way to fix it? This doesn't affect the display of the help all, but causes problems due to increased word count for translation purposes.
