Thanks. I'll do a bit more research on the subject. Believe it or not, I've never heard of DOMContentUtils.getOutlinks, but I'm learning a bit more and more every day :).
Step 1 - install it Step 2 - ask a bunch of annoying newbie questions on the mailing list Step 3 - RTFM Step 4 - fix my installation so that it works to my needs Step 5 - answer annoying newbie questions from other people and help spread the word. I'm still on step 2, but I'm getting there :) Thanks, Steve http://www.stevekallestad.com/ On 2/8/07, Renaud Richardet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Steve, > > Steve Kallestad wrote: > > I've discovered that nutch follows links that aren't necessarily links - > > > > in my MediaWiki implementation, there is some out-of-the-box > > javascript that contains: > > > > var wgArticlePath = "/wiki/$1"; > > > > Nutch actually tries to go to /wiki/$1.
