How does Google approach JS

Good Day,

I have recently written a page that has 5 different sections of content and uses jquery to change between them. How will a crawler view this? does the crawler view the html, in which case it will see all of the content, or does it view the visual display, in which case it will it only assess the initial content? the website is http://allegroaffiliates.com/indexnew1.php if I have not clearly enough described the navigation.

Thank you for any feedback as I am very curious.

David

    If you can't see the text/links on the text version of the Google cache then don't expect Google to be able to scrape the text or links.

    Google can read some js but unless you have visual proof (text cache) then all you're doing is guessing.

    As far as using content in js code, don't do it If you want it to be found by search bots.

      That is exactly what I needed. Thank you. I loaded the page in lynx text browser and everything shows, so it should be fine for Google.

      Thank you again.
