Unfortunately that is not good news for me. The code I had in mind was the "featured threads" listing in the sidebar of my forum index. It uses http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforum...al.php?type=js

<script src="external.php?type=js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
for (i=0;i<10;i++)
{
  document.writeln("<div class=\"smallfont\" style=\"padding:8px\">" + threads[i].threaddate + " " + threads[i].threadtime + "<br /><strong><a href=\"thread" + threads[i].threadid + ".html\">" + threads[i].title + "</a></strong><br />" + threads[i].poster + "</div>");
}
//-->
</script>

According to the link you sent me, google is experimenting with a spider that can follow simple JavaScript that clearly contains the URL only. Oh well.
