I like to use one Tab script on my website, external page will be loaded in that script using AJAX.

Anyone can see this script and tell me will this is searchable by search engines because when i try "search engine simulator" then external file content not shown there but on website mentioned "For search engines or browsers with JavaScript disabled, the external contents will just load as actual pages (instead of via Ajax)."

Hope to hear your comments.

You need to make a site map, or make a version that is plain, no ajax.

This is the downfall of ajax unfortunately. There are ways around it, but it can be difficult and aggravating at times, believe me.

You can make the links with anchors, and javascript can know which page to find the ajax way, which is probably the best way to do it.

Well, my external page is pure html, just loading on other page using that script. Have you look that script? I think there claim of searchable by search engines is wrong.

So just adding abc.html#anchor

and define #anchor on top of html page will work?
