PHP site

Disallowing pages

[dj_lysuc]

Hi everyone, I have a site in PHP and all pages go through the index.php file. This loads a header file, other files and the main index. When index.php?page=anotherpage is called, different content is shown.

I thought this would be good for search engine lists as it would only list my main index, but was a bit taken back when google listed one of my other pages ABOVE my main index in the search results!

I only want the main index listed and have today added meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow" to the header file to show on all pages but the index page. Do I need to add a robots.txt file, and if so will I have to list every page i.e as follows or what options do I have?

User-agent: *
Disallow: index.php?page=page2
Disallow: index.php?page=page3

I am very confused why you only want one page in google. The more pages you have the better.

I'm having bandwidth problems and don't want sub pages listed.
