simple robots.txt clarification

folders within folders

[headown]

Within my robots.txt file I have for example:

Disallow: /gallery1/enlargehtml

I wish to disallow everything in the folder "enlargehtml" but allow all files in the folder "gallery1" to be spidered (except of course the folder "enlargehtml"). Is this the proper protocol?

Thanks,

Mike

Yes.

Thanks! One more short question:

If I have:

Disallow: /homeHRD.htm

will this also disallow:

/homeHR.htm ?

Thanks in advance-

[Dijkgraaf]

No, it won't.

If you had
Disallow: /homeHR
it would disallow /homeHR.htm & /homeHRD.htm any anything else starting with /homeHR (files of any type & folders).
The disallow is saying, don't ask for anything begining with this.
