[PHP] PHP and search engine???

[Martin Towell]

you could try looking at http_referer or remote_host or something like that.
Never tried it myself, but sounds like it'd work... dunno what the values
for them would be though :(

Hi!

is it possible to use include() to optimise the meta tags on our web
pages?
example:

if yahoo.com is spidering our page the key word provided is a,b,c, ...
if altavista.com is spidering then use key word.....etc..

if it is possible how do i know that yahoo is spidering or altavista is
spidering?

any suggestion is appriciated.

regards,
Dani

Please note that some search engines doesn't like to be 'fooled' in this
manner. They'll probably stop indexing your website if they find out you're
engaged in such practices :)
