Re: [htdig-dev] Text within an anchor tag/hyperlink being indexed -- why?

[Jessica B. <jes...@ya...>]

Actually, to append to this problem I'm running into,
it doesn't appear to be the text WITHIN the anchor tag
-- rather, there is text between the beginning <A> and
the ending </A> of the anchor tag that contains the
word "large".

The question still is, though, how do I completely
wipe out any reference to text between these tags as
relevant to the linked document?

Thanks,
-Jes
