Re: Page title for CGIDEV2 PDF file

No, these links are sought out by these sites that are in our field and
they link to them from their sites. It isn't search crawlers gathering the
data. There are some that have valid reasons and, for want of a better
term, authority for linking to them but that is due to they being clients
of our services. They are documents representing their events. Other third
party sites link to them as well bypassing our site. I've not come up with
a way to deny some but allow others without constant changing of the apache
configuration. I'm open to other suggestions.

Would an entry in your robots.txt to say not to crawl pdfs work?

I agree with Charles. I'm having to convert ours to streaming because of
other sites linking to the documents. They are public documents but

should

be served from our site. I've tried different apache configs but nothing
that satisfied everything I needed to keep working.

yes, all your PDFs would be available via a URL.

I'd stick with streaming....unless all the docs are public (to the users

of

the site at least).

Even if public, I'd probably stick with streaming them.

The PDF files already exist and are generated by our QC department. I
have no idea how.

I'm having my CGI app stream the file to the browser.


It looks like if I link directly to the PDF file (rather than streaming

it

via CGI), the window title is the PDF filename. These aren't sensitive
documents, so I think I'll just symlink the PDF dir under Apache and

link

directly to the PDF files. Any glaring problem with that?


Thanks
