Indexer not following links in form

[greenwoodc]

I'm reasonably certain that there is no setting that will make webinator follow the links in the forms on this page and the pages it goes to: http://www.edmonds.wednet.edu/technolog ... /index.htm

They aren't my pages, so redesigning them is possible but not the preferred solution.

The pages are all located in the same directory, so I would want webinator to walk the directory. I know that webinator needs links.

Does anyone already have a script I could use (we're a non-profit school district, so free is appreciated) that automates creating an HTML file with links to all files in a directory? Then I could just tell webinator to look at that page. I can imagine a script working, I just don't want to apend a week (I'm a newbie to scripting) recreating the wheel if someone already has one.

OR.....Does anyone have a better idea?

Thanks!

There's no setting to do that directly. You could modify dowalk slightly to extract those links and others like them. In the function "<a name=getlinks" find <getscriptstrlinks> and insert the following code just before that line:

<rex '<option value\="\P=[^"]{1,100}>>\.htm=l?\F">' $htmlpage>
<urlutil abs $base $ret>
<$u = $u $ret>

John, FYI, Javascript processing won't get those links. Even with scriptvaryevents turned on.

Woo hoo! I went with Mark's suggestion and that worked beautifully! Thank you!
