This may be a new google bomb?

hi,

how does google handle the data after the hashmark sign? f.e. is index.html#first and index.html#second the same for google?

if i make f.e. news site with lots of incoming links like index.php#id=1 (it's possible to fetch the data after the hashmark) instead of index.php?id=1 google may think all the links are pointing to one page.

anybody get's the clue?

excuse my bad english.

Up to now, Google doesn't seem to recognize our # at all

All search engines probably treat dir\page.html#label as simply dir\page.html.

The # text is reserved for use by browsers. However, it is possible to construct dynamic pages that use this text, indeed I suggested it some time ago as a solution to a problem. Generally, there will probably be a better solution though.
