I'm noticing that web requrests are coming in with /robots.txt appended at the
end: http://www.domain.com/ProductDetails...527/robots.txt
I can correct these, one by one for each page, but I'd like to find a way to
have ASP.NET 2.,0 strip this invalid /robots.txt off the end of any URL for me.
Is this possible?

Thanks in advance, Les Caudle 4  1600 
Let me asking why do you want to strip it?
robors.txt is asked by automatic robots that collect information. Like
google or yaho.
But in your case apparently it's some lame robot that can not parse out url
correctly simply ads /robot.txt to the end of url and asks for it from the
server.
So why would you worry what kind of garbage it will get in return from your
page.
All important robots you should be worring about like Google or Yahoo parse
out url correctly.
So i am saying just ignore it. It's not human.
George.

Well, it creates an event in my event log that would distract me from real
events caused by users who had problems.
Would be nice to be able to globally deal with it.

Well, the problem is that this time it's robot.txt. Next time (with another
bad robot) it will be something else.
You can not fix it for every bad robot that out there.
Override Application_OnE rror and send an email to yourself every time
something bad happened. Then you can use Email's rules to filter out the
most annoying ones

Hi Les,
I agree with George, as long as your web site can be accessed publicly, you
cannot guarantee every URL request is valid or in expected manner.

Hi
I'm aware of the use of robots.txt and the use of <META NAME="ROBOTS"
CONTENT="index,follow">
However, what would be more useful is to be able to control within a
page which elements of the page should be indexed and seen by robots and
which elements are simply page furniture and it is safe to ignore or not
cache (e.g. adverts).

Hi,
I recently discovered that robots.txt files aren't necessarily any use on
Apache servers.

Hello
Im collecting ideas for a piece of software I've in mind.
I need to create an application which can be started with some parameters,
the application have to be started in many instances and on many servers.
Every instance has a special job to fullfill, think of the instances as
small robots - a robot farm or something like that. Every robot should be
able to tell for instance when its idle, when its running etc..

I have wondered, and I've tried this on a few random sites. I type
the name of a site. www.somesite.com and follow it with /robots.txt.
This can tell the robots not to bother indexing the /images/ directory
or something, but it can also tell script kiddies where to look for
stuff. For example the Disallow may read Disallow: /AdminPages/.
So, isn't that a simple way to tell someone to type that into their
browser and see if it is open?...

This bug, " robotparser interactively prompts for username and
password", has been open since 2003. It killed a big batch job of ours
last night.
Module "robotparser" naively uses "urlopen" to read "robots.txt" URLs.
If the server asks for basic authentication on that file, "robotparser"
prompts for the password on standard input. Which is rarely what you
want. You can demonstrate this with:
import robotparser

Python's "robots.txt" file parser may be misinterpreting a

For some reason, Python's parser for "robots.txt" files
doesn't like Wikipedia's "robots.txt" file:
False
The Wikipedia robots.txt file passes robots.txt validation,
and it doesn't disallow unknown browsers. But the Python
parser doesn't see it that way. No matter what user agent or URL is
specified; for that robots.txt file, the only answer is "False".
It's failing in Python 2.4 on Windows and 2.5 on Fedora Core.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
