[Summary-Talk] Re: trailing slashes on files that should be listed as

[Jason Linhart <jason@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Those requests must be showing up in the log file with trailing slashes.
I would count that as a bug in your web server. A request with a
trailing slash is a directory, which is counted as a page request by
default. You could reconfigure what kind of request directories get
counted as, but you probably have some real directories that you still
want to be counted as pages. You need to find out why your web server is
logging those requests with the trailing slash in the first place.

I would not expect graphics to appear in the Downloads section. They
should appear in the Graphics section.

It is best to list .css as a graphic request. .css files are embedded in
pages similar to the way graphics are, so the paths report will be most
accurate if you configure them to be graphics. (This is the default in
Summary.)

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed
as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
