Bud,
I would sit the customer down and have them type in a search for "Cold
Fusion." After the search results come in, take the top one and go to the
site. Then manually type in the "index.cfm." Amazingly that site was the
first in line and also contained the .cfm extension..... Try to have the
expert there :-)
I have written to several search engines and the employees have written
back with "very" detailed information on how they spider a page. I would
recommend Lycos and yahoo as they have always responded quickly and have
always been polite.
Good Luck,
Craig
