yes, quite right, unfortunately, I don't think I can get the CMS to serve it correctly as xml, however google digested it happily enough - just failed to spider all URLs - something which I now know is normal. The only puzzle I still have is with the search results in our Custom Search Engine (still off topic!) but why would the public search return a different amount to the custom search? I have to admit, after 5 months of no change, this week it's gone from 1 result to 21 - go figure! Thanks again to all who replied. It's just reinforced to me that if you want an internal search engine that really works and is controllable, that leaving it up to the magic donkeys at google is really not an option. Still trying to convince our fine institution of that ;-) -- Andrew Harris and...@woowoowoo.com http://www.woowoowoo.com ~~~ <*))))>< ~~~ ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org *******************************************************************
