RE: [PHP] Big Site !!!!

It doesn't matter at all for search engines. the only thing they can possibly detect is the file extension. So if your files are .php or .php3 and the search engine is a real b...ch so it might ignore these kind of files to spider. In this case just add .html to be parsed for php and you'll trick'em all. Everything that does not require a password to access your site, including the spider of course, is using HTTP request and so it goes through apache which preprocess every file at it's time. So no spider, browser will ever figure out that you have a server-side programming language in a file.

Hi there, I have another question: We are managing a rather large web site. There is a stangard navigation on the entire website. When our client requests a change to this - it is a monster to change because we have 300 files to change individually and upload. I recommended SSI's but was informed that this would cause problems for something as big as the DHTML navigation in terms of speed. My next suggestion was using PHP and functions to make lif easier. However the problem is that the site is already submitted to search engines and I have been told that many search engines do not look at PHP code. Does anyone have any suggestions about this. Any help would be kindly appreciated.
