	Many attributes may be restricted in scope, specifically those
	used by the 
htdig.htmlhtdig  indexer. These
	attributes can be specified on a per-server or per-URL basis
	and thus can be applied to only one site or even one
	particular portion of a site. For example:
	
	
	  
		
		<server: www.foo.com>
		
attrs.html#server_wait_timeserver_wait_time : 5		</server>
		
	  
	
	
	Here the portions inside the <server:> </server>
	
block are normal attributes as specified in
	the 
cf_general.htmlgeneral configuration 	documentation. However, rather than applying to all servers,
	these attributes will apply 
only to the www.foo.com server.
	
	
	It is also possible to have <url:> &lt/url>
	blocks. With these, any URL matching the pattern specified in
	the block will use the attributes within, overriding any other
	configuration.
	
	
	Not all attributes apply within blocks. Those that do are
	listed with the appropriate context in the 
attrs.htmlattribute
	documentation
.
