    SEARCH ENGINES

    From http://searchenginewatch.com/ (search engine use and how they work): One other meta tag worth mentioning is the robots tag. This lets you specify that a particular page should not be indexed by a search engine. The format is like this: <meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow"> a robot should neither index this document, nor analyse it for links. Not all search engines support this tag. As an alternative, all the major search engines support the robots.txt convention of blocking indexing. Note the "robots" name of the tag and the content are case insensitive. See http://info.webcrawler.com/mak/projects/robots/meta-user.html

    http://searchenginewatch.com/webmasters/checkurl.html explains how to check whether or not a serach engine lists your URL.
