pages invisible for search engines

[patweb]

can you or how to hide simple .htm pages from search engines. I have to publish a few pages with information that is not secret but a little confidential (a few private items from members, accessible by those members). Leaving the meta-tag description away is not sufficient. How to ?

thanks, pat.

You could try the following metatag

<META NAME=&quot;ROBOTS&quot; CONTENT=&quot;NOINDEX&quot;>

Infinity exists! - I just haven't worked out a way to get there yet.

If your data is even slightly confidential, you should have it password protected. A robot can be configured to ignore robots.txt files and any other robot excluion methods.

Hope this helps
