Confirming Robots.txt code deep Directories

[cbielich]

Just want to make sure I understand exactly what I am doing

If I place this in my Robots.txt

Disallow: /root/this/that

By doing this I want to make sure that I am ONLY blocking the directory /that/ and anything in front of that. I want to make sure that /root/this/ still stays in the index, its just the that directory I want gone.

Am I correct in understanding this?

that's right!

Disallow: /root/this/ will bock the complete directly whereas,

Disallow: /root/this/that will only block the "that" within "this"

hope this helps!
