php and Googlebot

I've created a php page which is optimized for search engine indexation: no
images, tables or css, just plain html with relevant meta tags etc.

The page contains a list records pulled from a database, and for each record
there is a link to the detail view for that record in this form: <a
href="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>?rec=<?=$recordId ?>">

I've made sure the urlstring doesn't contain a variable called 'id' or
something, since I heard some bots will assume that is a session id and not
follow the link.

>From my server stats I can see that the "master view" page is being indexed
fine by Google, but the bot apparently doesn't follow the links to the
detail pages.

Does anyone have any idea why?
