robots.txt question / coldfusion

[Web-Design-Guy]

I'm optimizing a site that was built in coldfusion. Urls are _reasonably_ search engine friendly but I need to block a few pages using robots.txt.

Urls on the site appear like this in the address bar, with no extension:

http://www.domain.com/go/our-products/name-of-the-page

My question is, does robots.txt need a file extension? Is this a totally noob question?

Would this work in robots.txt?

User-Agent: *
Disallow: /go/our-products/name-of-the-page

TIA for any advice.

Extensions are not required. Exclusions in robots.txt are processed as text strings from left-to-right, so you only need to enter the string as far as needed to be unique - so if you wanted to block every page starting with name-of-, you can do that by just leaving off the last word.

You can test your robot.txt file using google webmaster tools.
