... or any other search motor. I just happen to prefer Google. PerlMonks uses only one url path because it relies on CGI requests. On the other hand, indexation motors don't follow links with requests because it often leads to an unlimited number of virtual pages.

I suppose it should be pretty easy to make perlmonks accessible using another DNS address (say id.perlmonks.org) with the path directly built rom the id of the node accessed.

say: http://id.perlmonks.org/31579.html.

The links within such a page would follow the same syntax

I suppose that most indexation motors would corrrectly index such a site. I don't think that an Internet abbey must stay a secluded place!!! ..

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
