¿Disallow duplicate URL?

[thekiller99]

Hi comunity,

thanks for answering my question.

I have a problem with a website. My website is:

http://example.examples.com/brand/brand1 (good URL)

but i have 2 filters to show something and this generate 2 URL's more:

http://example.examples.com/brand/brand1?show=true (if we put 1 filter)

http://example.examples.com/brand/brand1?show=false (if we put other filter)

My question is,

should i put in robots.txt disallow for these filters like this:

**Disallow: /*?show=***

In my opinion: No, you should not. The result will be that those URLs are indexed but with a standard description to the effect that google knows the URL exists but not what is behind it; titles may be taken from links or past data.

Canonical is the way to go.
