Dynamically generated pages??

    Hello, I have built an alphabetical directory but I wasn't aware that these are dynamically generated pages. I have widgets-A.php , widgets-B.php etc.

    But today I stumbled upon this page: widgets.php which had the same content as widgets-A.php.

    So my programmer tells me that widgets.php is the only page that exists and widgets-A, B, C, D are dynamic pages that are built from the first one. Is this ok for Google etc?

    Thanks alot for your help,
    Adrian

    It shouldn't be an issue unless the page is also tagged with session ids or long parameters..

    It should be fine, your programmer is using mod_rewrite to rewrite each page automatically based off widgets.php. The search engine will detect each page as it's own URL. Thousands if not millions of sites do this, so it should not be a problem with Google.
