For example, in addition to documents that have been indexed, ht://Dig keeps "stubs" for document URLs that it has discovered but not indexed yet. Since text of links pointing towards documents is included as search terms, these can come up in results. If you're using 3.1.x these "stubs" are removed by htmerge. If you're using a 3.2 beta, these are not removed by htpurge by default--if you don't want them, you should set the "remove_unretrieved_urls" attribute. <http://www.htdig.org/dev/htdig-3.2/attrs.html#remove_unretrieved_urls> Beyond this reason (IMHO the most likely), you may have a document that has a title tag, but because of malformed HTML, htdig doesn't find it when indexing. -- -Geoff Hutchison Williams Students Online http://wso.williams.edu/ _______________________________________________ htdig-general mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, send a message to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with a subject of unsubscribe FAQ: http://htdig.sourceforge.net/FAQ.html
