Splash/doorway pages usually do not contain any content. To keep this in perspective, we will address legitimate uses of splash or doorway pages. Figure 8-10 illustrates the concept.

If all you had was a Flash file as shown in Figure 8-10, the web spider would be stuck and would not have anywhere to go.
