Bug? Redirects Not Followed

[Fringe Ryder]

Title: the title

I haven't entered this as a bug because I don't know if it actually IS one. I was doing some testing of Plucker this evening, and decided to do it against one of my own web sites so I wouldn't annoy anyone else. I think of my chosen site as utterly generic - no Java, no JavaScript, no ASP or CGI. (I might try the posting against another site of mine with a C++ CGI back-end later, when I'm feeling ambitious.) My usual grabber is HT Track, which has absolutely no problem on my web site. Plucker failed. Grabbed a single file. Since I knew that was wrong, I didn't waste time synching and examining the file - big mistake. Instead I wasted time trying to discern the difference between my settings for this and for Slashdot (which does grab.) To make a way-too-long story just a wee bit longer, I eventually got past the brain-block and realized the problem is my starting page... my index.html is just a placeholder containing (sanitized)... Loading... Most spiders follow it. Plucker doesn't. Is this a bug, or a feature request, or a pipe dream? Thanks Tony McNamara
