question on cfhtmlhead

Hi - I want to exclude one of the page from search engine crawling. I am using the following tag <meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow"> Also I am inserting the above tag through cfhtmlhead. My question is if search engine would recognize this meta tag that is inserted into head later in the page. I hope I made myself clear. Thanks.

Hi there, the CFHTMLHEAD tag will inject the content into the HEAD section of the HTML before any of it is flushed out to the client, so when a search engine sees the content it will show up in the HEAD section regardless of where in the code you make the call to CFHTMLHEAD. -Justin Scott

They will. Before search engine "sees" your pages, CF processes the cfhtmlhead and inserts the meta tag into the head of the page. Same as with an end-user.

You should also put a disallow for this page in the Robots.txt file.
