no weight for links?

is it right that theres no weighting for links to a page? we know this gives the best relevance thanks to over a decade of google, but this script seems to make no use of that at all?

More and more it becomes necessary to use the search function on top of this forum. So you could find a lot of posts concerning "weighting".
For example

This is the way original Sphider calculates weighting. And Sphider - as Ando Saabas created it - is not a re-engineering of Google.

what was the point of giving me a link to a page that confirms what i already said? I was merely asking for a confirmation of what i had gleaned was correct. A re-engineering of google? is sarcasm really called for?

Thanks for the link.

I found the blog www.MattsMarketingBlog.Com and it helped me a lot.
