In your case: Disallow: /foru would work, but would obviously disallow a load of other things that you probably do not want to disallow. You talk about "post_id-*.html" but is there anything you *do* want to allow in the form "post_id-*.<something else>"? Perhaps: Disallow: /forum/post_id is all you need. That will match any URL where the URL begins with /forums/post_id.

Actually the post_id should work fine, there is a topic_id as well that lists the exact same content, only threaded, instead of individual posts. again thank you again for your time. In due time, I am sure I will subscribe to this site, It's very helpful. regards, frogz
