Nope.
My understanding is SEs (Search Engines) don't follow URLs with ? and &. The
good news is if your serving pages using IIS and CFM ... you can specify a
URL without ? and &, and redirect appropriately. Might even work in other
environments beside IIS ... but I haven't tested them.
I believe there is a CF_Tag that handles this, check the CF_Talk archive or
Fusebox sites.
You can write your own cflocation redirection based on #CGI.PATH_INFO# ...
the key is to rewrite a URL like
http://www.yoursite.com/product.cfm?product_id=123 to something like
http://www.yoursite.com/product.cfm/product_id/123
Now a question to the board, is it possible to make SE friendly URLs using
ASP ... less than writting an ISAPI extension that steals the map path event?
