This may seem to bea little bit of work, because you have to make sure that WebCatalog willnot output any non-friendly links inside the page.So, your pages have links that will normally (without Welcome) not work,but if you use Welcome to change any of these urls back to the ?$versionbefore the server gets them, you can totally hide these bad urls fromtheoutside world.Finally, you can submit friendly (and normally not working) urls to allrobots that you like.I am not very familiar with WebCatalog and thus I don't know how difficultit is to make pages with non-? or $ links in them without turningWebCatalog inside out, but at least I can tell you that converting theURLs with Welcome will add almost no time to hit processing and will notmake your server slower and this is the major advantage of this approach.BTW: Using Welcome's rules will even enable you to do other neat trickslike:- using WebCatalog from several virtual hosts as it would be installed in each virtual hosts root- hide other implementation details- prevent hijacking or block specific referers- create a temporary under construction page while you update the site for every user that access the updated pages of your site (not only for the home page but, thanks to Rules, for a bunch of pages too)Sorry for this advertising style mail, but if anybody likes to know moreabout Welcome and it's combination with WebCatalog, please join themailing list at .Greetings,Andreas Pardeike-----------------------------------------------------------------Author of Pardeikes Welcome Plugin - Virtual Hosting and Dynamic URL Manipulations with Search/Replace----------------- End Forwarded Message --------------------Laurent PladysLXir L a u r e n t P l a d y s�� L X i r_____________________________________________ 1 5 5 r u e d e P i c p u s 7 5 0 1 2 P a r i s F r a n c e_____________________________________________ +33 (0)1 44 68 80 60 (tel) +33 (0)1 44 68 80 61 (fax)_____________________________________________ w w w .
