Do ANY search engines accurately "See" links created by Javascript

    I have heard conflicting reports on this.

    This would certainly not be hard technically - but i have long heard that major search engines do not "see" javascript generated links.

    Is this still true?

    Are there any exceptions?

    Thanks!!:)

    Specifically for document.write() method.

    If links are created via this method - AS THE PAGE LOADS - will these links be seen as valid back links by any engines?

    Unfortunately bots cannot read any JavaScript. JavaScript is entirely run on client side within a browser; therefor the bots with never see it

    Exactly what I would have said.
