are s9y blog entries search engine aware?

Because the html is stored in the database rather than as searchable text, how do search engines index the blog entries?

Through normal HTTP requests, so all is fine. :)

All is not fine because the individual blog entry does not show in the log.

Please be specific. Your blog entry like http://blog.s9y.org/archives/242-Greeti ... arvin.html comes from the database, but is a distinct, specific URL.

My logs only say domainname.com/blog/index.php. There is no url like the one you wrote showing a specific entry.

Hi!

Please see your other thread, you need to enable URL rewriting (and your server needs to support mod_rewrite or apache errorhandling...)

I see the choices are 'Use Apache Error handling' and 'Use mod-rewrite'.

Which one?

Thanks.

If your server supports mod_rewrite, you'll probably want to use that. If not, Apache error handling is an alternative.
