php enabled site with frames mostly ignored by Google

Google, noframes, and php

[kgormat]

I have a site that uses nested frames and php to generate dynamic product content. The dynamic data is strictly product catalog data, the promotional copy, etc. is static. The static pages do include php to handle some issues we encountered with Verio's php implementation and session handling.

The issue I'm encountering is that GoogleBot will not peruse the links of the site, which I can somewhat understand because of the nested frames complication. However, I have tried to move the relevant copy along with static html links to the noframes area of the key pages with no success. Furthermore, Google's cache contains absolutely no visible content.

Am I overlooking something obvious here or does Google not care for links within noframes content? Is there another workaround to this issue perhaps?

Best Regards,
Kent

Ya, you have to move to static content. Preferrably static content that is not in frames. There are several traps and pitfalls.

Allow me to further clarify. The content I want indexed is static. It contains php but it is not dynamically produced content.

Unless a budget miricle occurs, the site will remain frame-enabled. Therefore, making the obvious move to a non-frames site is not in the cards.

I say just design your site the way you want and screw google....

Its rediculous... Technology is there to be utilized, use php as it makes your life easier to use a database that creating 3000 static pages...

If Google are incapable of indexing php, asp and other dynamic content as good as they can static content then thats their problem. Sure it would be great to have Google giving you millions of referrals daily, but IŽd rather have half the hits and a less pain in the *** website to be honest.

Google need to get with it when it comes to dynamic content, I shouldnŽt have to out of my way to design a site with static content so that THEY can archive, cache and republish it, whilst sticking at the top of the cache pages, "Bookmark this page and not the original", go figure!

To put things in context. I have added the URL to my profile. I suspect the issue is with the javascript that targets the nested frames. However, I'm still unclear as to why the noframes links are not crawled.
