    Skipped files that are located on a different server

    W2003 web server
    Zoom Pro
    plugins are installed
    extensions added

    Almost all of our .doc .pdf, etc. files are located on another server. Zoom skips indexing these files. I have gone through the faq section. I do not know if the Javascript faq applies. Below is the top section of code for you to check out.

    I have given permissions for the web server to access the data server.

    I presume you are using Spider Mode indexing.

    The first problem here is that those are not actually links. The path for those files are simply values in a dropdown box. You are using Javascript to make it possible for the user to open them. As explained in this FAQ, it is not possible for the spider to follow Javascript generated "links".

    Consult the FAQ linked above for a solution to provide actual hypertext links to the files within the Javascript menu (using a <noscript> tag block).

    Once you have actual hypertext links to these files, you should also make sure you have enabled "Scan files linked via file:// URLs" in the Configuration window (under the "Scan Options" tab).

    Hope that helps.
