If you are using CF 5.0 the Verity Spider can do this. You can configure it to exclude any number of individual files based on name, path or regular expression pattern matches. Caveat is that it only works on the "Localhost" address space. So if you are using host header redirection on your webserver you'll have to either assign localhost to that website or buy the full spider...
Geesh... I'm starting to sound like the VSpider Zealot of the CF-Talk List... Am I that bad? ;^) Anyway, I did a presentation for this earlier this year. If any of you are interested in the information, you can find the presentation, some related Macromedia documentation (the Advanced CF5.0 Administration Guide in PDF format -- has all the goodies on K2 and the Verity Spider) and some demo batch files at http://www.spectrumastro.com/veritydemo/index.cfm Enjoy, Jeff Garza Lead Developer/Webmaster Spectrum Astro, Inc.

Title pretty much says it.... I need to EXCLUDE a single file from a Verity index. Anybody got a good way to do this? Basically, it's a framed site, and it's possible to pull up the navigation frame as one of the search results, since most of the main terms you'd be searching for exists in that frame! -- Les Mizzell ------------------------------------- ------------------------------------- "People need to realize that every time they mention about how "fragile" our planet is, it's like asking outer-space aliens to come invade us."
