Deep linking
Well-known techniques, and libraries such as SWFAddress[3] and unFocus History Keeper,[4] now exist that website creators using Flash or AJAX can use to provide deep linking to pages within their sites.[8][9] At the beginning of 2006, in a case between the search engine Bixee.com and job site Naukri.com, the Delhi High Court in India prohibited Bixee.com from deep linking to Naukri.com.However, such assistance raised only contributory liability issues and does not constitute direct infringement of the copyright owner's display rights.In a February 2006 ruling, the Danish Maritime and Commercial Court (Copenhagen) found systematic crawling, indexing and deep linking by portal site ofir.dk of real estate site Home.dk not to conflict with Danish law or the database directive of the European Union.[14] Web site owners who do not want search engines to deep link, or want them only to index specific pages can request so using the Robots Exclusion Standard (robots.txt file).[citation needed] People against deep linking often claim that content owners may be unaware of the Robots Exclusion Standard or may not use robots.txt for other reasons.[15] The Robots Exclusion Standard does not programmatically enforce its directives so it does not prevent search engines and others who do not follow polite conventions from deep linking.
