Any help would be kindly > appreciated. I have a rather large site (about 95,000 pages available online - no, I didn't write them all :^) and have no problems with search engines crawling the site (other than the fact that some days there's 4 or 5 robots from different places on the site simultaneously). I parse all .htm and .html files - that way the search engines don't know that some of the pages are dynamically generated. Mark Charette@sneezy.org
