Hi Kieth and hwg;
I found this in the page you suggested.
<META name="robots" content="ALL">
I thought it was supposed to be set up this way.
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="index,follow">
The robots meta tell the search engine spiders what it should do in regard
to the page. Aren't two entries needed? The first to tell the spider to
index a page or not. The second to tell the spider to follow the links in
the page or not. The entries can be index and noindex or follow and nofollow.
A quick question too, are meta tags case sensitive? Does it matter that
your tag is lower case and mine is upper? If I'm wrong here I'd appreciate
some help :)
Thomas
