Search engines caching php and html pages

[Luigi Donatello Asero]

I wonder whether and how search engines can index php pages. Or can they
only save a cache for html pages?

Search engines read HTML pages. What your PHP page creates is an HTML page.
So yes, search engines can read PHP pages.

They can do it, and quite easily, because there is no such thing
as a "php page". Presuming a properly configured server, an
HTTP request for a resource that is a '.php' file will result
in that file being parsed by the PHP preprocessor, which will
output (x)HTML, which is also what happens when a resource is
requested that is a '.html' file.

Please fix your signature block. It should start
with "-- "(two dashes and a space, without the quotes)
on a line by itself.

Is the signature block ok now?

Yes, it is

When you use a proper signature block delimiter, good newsreader
software will automatically trim the signature block when someone
replies to your postings.

A SE indexes whatever it can get, it doesn't matter how the pages are
generated. But there's a caching issue with PHP by default (affecting
proxy and browser caches).

Cacheable (HTML):
<http://www.web-caching.com/cgi-web-...m/it/temperature-in-svezia-novembre-2004.html>

Not cacheable (PHP):
<http://www.web-caching.com/cgi-web-...om/it/temperature-in-svezia-novembre-2004.php>

Well, the time which is shown is the one which is valid on that page is the
one which is valid in Italy and not in Greenwich.
(Greenwich Mean Time)
The Time is written in Italian. Should I write "ora italiana" (italian
time)?
