Spiders bad, <cf_porn> good. ;)

Seriously, one time an in-house "Quality Assurance Tester" went through one
of my ADMIN ONLY sites with a spider one time. He logged in and set the
spider loose. It was very bad. The spider took to clicking every link in the
site. Flipping ever bit flag that had a link on it. Switching all kinds of
things on and off. It took me a while to figure out what happened too. If
you are going to be hit buy a spider, make sure you don't have any links
that delete records. My boss made sure no more testing was done with
spiders!

Subject: Spiders and Cold Fusion


One of out clients has hired an Internet Marketing company to help get them
more hits.

I just got a call from one of their reps, and they were trying to tell me
"Cold Fusion will not work with search engine spiders" because the pages
are "fused together".

I was ready to laugh in her face.  Does anyone know of problems with CF and
Search Engine spiders?  She wants us to generate an alternative site that
is static.
