Thank you all for your help!!
I think I have *sorta* figured out what my problem is. I believe it's the
.work files. By default in htdig.conf the database_dir defaults to
/opt/www/htdig/db however, I didn't have enough room on that partition for
the db files, so I had to move them to a partition where I had enough free
space database_dir /home/htdig_db
Here is an example of what I am seeing:
[utopia@freya utopia]$ ll /opt/www/htdig/db
total 64424
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 27250688 Aug 29 09:26 db.docdb.work
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 21328574 Aug 29 04:34 db.docs
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 696320 Aug 29 08:49 db.docs.index.work
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 8585456 Aug 29 09:26 db.wordlist.work
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 7845888 Aug 29 08:47 db.words.db.work
[utopia@freya utopia]$ ll /home/htdig_db
total 98628
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 26348544 Oct 6 04:29 db.docdb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 654336 Oct 6 04:29 db.docs.index
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 38597295 Oct 6 04:28 db.wordlist
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 35264512 Oct 6 04:28 db.words.db
[utopia@freya utopia]$
By this I am seeing that all of the work files are still in the old default
directory /opt/www/htdig/db and have not been updated since aug-29. It was
Aug-29 that I made the change to my htdig.conf moving my database_dir to
/home/htdig_db. I can see my crontab is working because it's updating
everything in /home/htdig_db everynite like it should be.
My question now is...do I need to move those .work files from
/opt/www/htdig/db to /home/htdig_db to get my search to finally update?
Once again, thank you for you help!!

According to Rivera, Tony:

I assume these are HTML links and not JavaScript ones. One possibility is
that the pages you modified are actually dynamic content (SSI, PHP, etc.)
and so the server isn't returning a Last-Modified header. If this is the
case, htdig won't realize the pages have been modified. You can set the
modification_time_is_now attribute to true, but then htdig will reindex
all dynamic pages every time it runs.

I assume you know about how to maintain the .work files and non-.work
files before and after running htdig and htmerge with the -a option?
If you're not copying the updated .work files to their non-.work locations,
then htsearch won't see the updates. See the contrib/examples/rundig.sh
script for an example of using the -a option for updates.
