Hey folks-<br>
<br>
I wrote the following jsp page to generate XML sitemaps that Google can
read (see <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/docs/en/faq.html">http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/docs/en/faq.html</a> ).<br>
<br>
Basically, it recurses through your site tree and pulls out any jsp,
html, or pdf files it finds, generating a link in Google's format so
they can locate the file.<br>
<br>
It also looks for three custom properties- these properties can be set
at the folder level, they will cascade to all files and subfolders
below.<br>
<br>
<ul>
<li>sitemap_hidden (default value: false): set this to "true" to hide
something from this script. I use it to hide client extranets and
include files.</li>
<li>sitemap_change_frequency (default value: weekly): controls how
often google should check for an update of this element. Legal values
are: always, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, never .</li>
<li>sitemap_priority (default value: 1): the relative priority of
this element. Should be an integer.</li>
</ul>
<br>
Here's the script- improvements and comments are welcome, of course:<br>
