Is anyone familiar with the "Contents" Meta Name tag ? <br />
<br />
META NAME="CONTENTS" Content="words similiar to description information"><br />
<br />
<br />
The term CONTENTS as a meta name tag is what is puzzling. If anyone is aware of this term, it's purpose, and benefit.<br />
<br />
I had been told it serves the same purpose as the META NAME "Description" tag, but for older browsers. I personally had never heard of it and I have searched some online tutorials without any success. I really need to know if this a necessary tag. Thanks for listening and helping if you can. <br />

This is the most important tag within the <head> section.<br />
<br />
<meta name="description" content=" your description here"><br />
This is used by many search engines, a good place to add keywords.<br />
<br />
<meta name="keywords" content="a long list of keywords here"><br />
Most search engines ignore this due to previous keyword stuffing abuse.<br />
<br />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"><br />
You will need this to tell the browser what character encoding to use to display the page: Western alphabet, Greek characters, Cyrillic alphabet, Thai, Chinese, Japanese, or Arabic script, or something else.<br />
<br />
<br />
I have never heard of the tag you are talking about; but I may have missed it.<!--content-->See also:<br />
