Then it matters only that there is a store lookup: http://www.acehardware.com/mystore/index.jsp?store=00914 Not that it's a franchise or cooperative. With the URL one can argue that no other details are needed. ---------------------------------------------------------- The website URL checker over at: http://keepright.ipax.at/ Processes a lot of chain store lookup URL's. It is helpful at times, as it alerts to closed stores in many cases. However when the base URL changes, thousands of links can go bad all at once... and it takes a mechanical edit to fix it properly. The keepright checker has been blocked from scanning by several hosts, but it could be smarter about realizing the chain store pattern and throttling back.
