    Hello,

    I plan to install a directory (PHPld 2.1) on my site. I´ve almost finished it, but I got some questions, because I don´t know anything about how google is handling PHP-Files.
    Wich PHP-files should I put into sitemap.xml & urllist.txt ?
    Just the index.php ?
    How is google indexing PHP-files anyway ?
    How is google indexing directories ?

    thanks for any help,
    Marc

    In sitemap.xml I think you should put all your links to your files

    I know.. my whole site is already in the sitemap.xml. But is it enough to put the index.php of the forum in the sitemap.xml to get it indexed well ?

    How does google read php-files. Does Google read includes wich are in the php file ? Or does it read the .html-output wich is created by the php-file.
    sorry, if my description isn´t that well, i just don´t know anything about PHP...

    thanks anyway...

    q1. yes, or /forum/ or forum what you have there. google will get your /forum/ default page.
    q2. reads only results of php file.
