When htdig makes a request, it checks to see if it has already seen a document associated with the current URL. If so, it includes the time it last saw this document in an If-Modified-Since header field. The web server hosting the document then checks to see if that document has been modified since the time provided in the HTTP request. If the document hasn't been modified, the web server returns the 304 status code, which lets htdig know that there is no reason to download and index the file again. So the 304 status code shouldn't have anything to do with whether a document is searchable or not. When you see this code, it just means that htdig already knows the content of the document and has no need to download the file again.
