Geocities Webpage Creator (HTML) - re: Page Builder


Expert: Dianne - 12/12/2000

Question
Hello,  I am having a problem with Geocities PageBuilder.. Everything has worked fine until now that I am trying to enter a "description" META tag.

The META tag sentence keeps appearing on the front of my web page and doesn't stay hidden. That didn't happen with the "keywords" when I put them in.  I entered it in the Forms part and also in the advanced editing html on the index.

This is my sentence...
>meta name="description"  content="Harp, Harpsichord, and Recorders blend together for unique, easy listening, Celtic music which is recorded on a compact disc by a dynamic duo">

This is my address:  http://www.aria-music.com  or www.geocities/dcarlozzi

Thanks for any suggestions here..I'm stuck with this.  

Answer
Hello Dee

If what you sent me is EXACTLY what your meta tag says, then it's simple : you've got the first > the wrong way round - it should be < so the tags should read
<META NAME="description" CONTENT="....">
<META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="...."> etc

(It's not case-sensitive, I just use capitals for clarity, you can use upper or lower-case letters, whichever you prefer.)

Hope this helps!

Best wishes
Dianne
