I have the following code: <input type="image" src="../Images/main/image.jpg" alt="Details" onclick="window.open('http://www.website.com')" /> Can Google follow this link? If yes how do I make it "nofollow"? Thanks!
Google does not follow links in javascripts. But links as you are talking about have nothing to do with nofollow. People have deranged nofollow into something it isn't. It is only to really be used to not allow PR to be passed on. It has nothing to do with indexing, crawling, finding, etc. If it exists on the web, google can find it. If you don't want google indexing something, us the noindex. But even then, you cannot, as an individual, really control what google intends to index. You can try. And what google does has nothing to do with yahoo, bing, etc. nofollow was created by google to avoid passing PR onto unmoderated, immediately posted links. Stephen C
rel="nofollow" is the command that makes it a no follow link, i think this might work; <input type="image" src="../Images/main/image.jpg" alt="Details" onclick="window.open('http://www.website.com')" rel="nofollow" />
