My URLs are constant. They are not changing. All my dynamic pages are indexed nicely on Google. I agree that a computerized screen scrapper could still screen scrap most of my site. However, a simple script that attempts to bump up the identifier of a resource in a URL, would not work. Here is example: http://mydomain.com/view_resource.php?id=1 http://mydomain.com/view_resource.php?id=2 http://mydomain.com/view_resource.php?id=3 http://mydomain.com/view_resource.php?id=4 That would not work because my IDs are not sequential.

Unless you are using an always-changing value for the value, then the screen-scraper doesn't really give a damn whether the value is: 2 avpu8e9hgre98gh9erhb549hgt2395tybnsdibnusreiobnwre9pg8h25490t8 It's all the same to a computer. If you ARE using always-changing URLs, then the search engines are never gonna find your pages, which seems like an odd goal to me. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
