Could someone give me a quick okay on this

just want a final check that this is not a problem

[AndrewMc]

I've used all the advice I could find on this wonderful board & have done the following - I thought I would get a final check in case I totally miss-understood what I read in other posts

link on another site (1234 can be any number)
www.mysite.com/ha1234

uses 404 error capture - 404 redirects to index.asp which is the important page

1234 is parsed out & used to generate dynamic content. If no ha---- is detected then index just displays static stuff (index being the home page)
server header is set to 200 Ok

Will my index.asp page be ok pagerank wise? - i.e will I be getting the link credit?

Just want to make sure I'm not shooting myself in the foot here. I really appreciate anybodies quick "Ok" or "not ok go away & think again"

Many Thanks!
Andrew

not OK,

don't use redirects.

the reason & solution is discussed here [webmasterworld.com...]

[AndrewMc]

I think I follow that.

these are the headers that get returned

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0
Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2002 13:39:49 GMT
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Length: 12988
Content-Type: text/html
Set-Cookie: ASPSESSIONIDGGQQGYZU=LGMHEDHCLJDKCKLOCCBBHECC; path=/
Cache-control: private

no actual redirect - only the 404 capture presenting the index.asp page

is the www.mysite.com/ha1234 link the problem you see in the solution?

Many Thanks for your time.
Andrew
