    Just got this error on goog site maps CP:

    line: 1618
    Parsing error:
    We were unable to read your Sitemap. It may contain an entry we are unable to recognize. Please validate your Sitemap before resubmitting.

    there is a cut from my sitemap.xls file(line 1618):

    <loc>http://www.SITE.COM/summer/acc.do?acc=5002&sid=S08</loc>

    does it mean that google wont to accept dynamic URLs?
    and what shall be done to be accepted?

    thanks.

    Yes, they do, but you need to encode it.

    I would also use a site map generator like gSiteCrawler to create the Sitemap. It will give you error listing that may help you.

    From "loc>http://www.SITE.COM/summer/acc.do?... We never use "/acc.do?" in our query string so I would check this out. Otherwise, I can not see anything wrong with the url.
