    Preventing spidering of index.php (homepage)

    How can I prevent the spider from indexing my homepage index.php.

    This is due to the fact that my front pahe uses an iframe and when a search is done and a result is found on the index.php page the result is a duplucate of the index.php within the iframe.

    Cheers

    You can prevent a page from being indexed, but still have Zoom follow the links on the page in one of two ways.

    1/ If the page is the spider start page (as is the case here) you can change the spidering options for this URL to be "Follow links only". You can do this from the "More" button in the main window of Zoom.

    2/ You can wrap your HTML code on the page in the and tags.
