Unlinked pages
 

Hi all

Has anyone had any experience with googlebot visiting pages within your site that do not have any links pointing to them?

Today googlebot has visited 2 pages within my site that definatley do not have any links to them. The two pages are part of my shopping cart pages, the first it could have only got to by submiting a form (adding a product to cart) and the second page it could have only got to if there was something in the shopping cart?? (i.e checkout button which is only displayed once items are in cart)

What makes this even more strange is the fact that googlebot normally crawls around 300-400 pages a day, but today these are the only two pages that have been touched so far.

I am not concerned about the pages being crawled, I would just like to know how it got to those pages. Can googlebot now submit forms or see your whole directory structure without following any links?
