Description

The most valueable russian search engine yandex.ru doesn't understand's attribute 'rel="nofollow"' and just ignore them.
But it uses it's own tag: .
Can you add a support of this tag?
Links should look like this:

<noindex><a rel="nofollow" href="URL">Link Text</a></noindex>

I know that yandex doesn't index an english-pages so only russian-language sites needs this feature.
Thanks. Vlad

Yandex.ru i sthe biggest russian search engine and it indexes only russian-language sites and it uses it's own rules...
So yandex.ru uses for links that shouldn't be followed and indexed.
