> Back > Top The description META tag is a short, plain language
description of the document. This is used by search engines to describe your document. If
your document has very little text, is a frameset, or has extensive scripts at the top,
you can use this tag to provide a description of a page for search engines. ex: The keywords META tag is a list of words that are separated
by a comma to be used by search engines to index your document in addition to words
from the title and document body. The search engine saves these keywords and uses them to
attract more hits to your site. ex: The person's name who create the page or the site. ex: Expiration:
> Back > Top The expires field uses the date and time after which the
document should be considered expired. An illegal date, such as "0" is
interpreted as "now." Setting the Expires attribute to 0 may thus be used to
force a modification check at each visit. Dates must be given in the following format in
GMT. ex: The refresh META tag specifies a delay, in seconds, before
the browser automatically reloads the document. Optionally, specifies an alternative URL
to load. ex: Set-Cookie:
> Back > Top The Set-Cookie META tag sets a cookie in Netscape Navigator.
Values with an expiration date are considered permanent and are saved to disk on exit. ex: For more information about the META tag, see: |
