As far as I know, your Meta-tag is only supported by very few robots.
Obviously not by ht://Dig. Another method would be to create a file
'robot.txt' in the root directory of the WWW server, which contains

User-agent:<robot-name> | "*"
[Allow: /path/[file.html] ]
Disallow: /path/[file.html] 

All lines can appear more than once. If you use the asterisk in the
first line, all robots should regard the exclusions.

Let me know, if it had worked.
