There are quite a few reasons why a page might be excluded during indexing and thus not show up later when running htsearch against the databases. Many of those reasons are covered in the following FAQ (as well as some of the other items linked to from this FAQ). http://www.htdig.org/FAQ.html#q5.27 Verbose output from the dig will often show you why a particular document is being rejected. Generally all documents linked from your starting URL, through any number of hops, are indexed unless one of your configuration settings explicitly excludes the document.
