robots.txt validator

Error, Error, Error loads of them

[hatap]

Why is it that when I use the robots.txt validator on my site: <snip> every line comes up as an error?

I have the robots.txt allowing all

Any help appreciated.

Use the link below to check your robots.txt file
[searchengineworld.com...]

And the Robots.txt Tutorial page
[searchengineworld.com...]

That's what I used! That is why I'm posting here.

You are supposed to enter the URL of the robot file, not your home page.

No errors detected! This Robots.txt validates to the robots exclusion standard!

You're fine!

Thanx Birdman.

So if my robots.txt is OK then why all these errors when I run the robots.txt validator?

Owning up to being a newbie at this, sorry.

To get a better idea of what I mean, run the validator with www.pchel4free.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk
(That's if you would be so kind)

Doh!

Sorry man, just twigged it. Now I feel stupid.

No sweat buddy!

Oh, one more thing.
