Hi Giles,
The email address is listed directly on the web site, and since this was not a "bug" per se I didn't enter it in the bug tracking system. If, in fact, this suggestion is already possible using noindex_start and noindex_end, you might post this with your comments tot the mailing list. Also, you might want to conisder publishing a "ht://Dig Tips and Tricks" section that offers configuration tips for various search engine schemes. The system seems very powerful, and I have a feeling I'm not the only user that is harnessing a mere fraction of it's capabilities.
Best,
Robert

I'm redirecting this to htdig-general, because that's probably the best
place to discuss what is, IMHO, a configuration issue.
Where did you get the htdig-bugs list address from? It's not on the web
site, as far as I can tell, and it wasn't really intended to be mailed
to directly. Doing so seems to bypass the bug tracking database, and
only sends directly to the relatively small number of subscribers that
get e-mail alerts from the database. Discussions and questions are best
held on htdig-general, and when reporting something you know to be a bug,
or requesting a feature you know to be missing, it should be done through
the web interface to the bug database, so it's logged correctly.
Anyway, to answer your request, have you tried using the noindex_start and
noindex_end attributes to suppress the frame tags from the HTML? It seems
that should do what you ask quite nicely.
