<META
CHARSET=charset
CONTENT=description
HTTP-EQUIV=response
NAME=description
URL=url>
Provides information about an HTML document to browsers, search engines, and other applications. For instance, META HTTP-EQUIV=REFRESH CONTENT=2 reloads a document every two seconds. Setting the HTTP-EQUIV= attribute to REFRESH gives the instruction to reload. The CONTENT= attribute specifies the time in seconds that the page refreshes. You can specify any URL in the element. If no URL is specified, the current document is reloaded.
Examples
If the document contains:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="Tue, 04 Dec 1996 21:29:02 GMT"> <meta http-equiv="Keywords" CONTENT="HTML, Reference"> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Reply-to" content="anybody@microsoft.com"> <Meta Http-equiv="Keywords" CONTENT="HTML Reference Guide">
then the server would include the following header fields:
Expires: Tue, 04 Dec 1996 21:29:02 GMT
Keywords: HTML, Reference
Reply-to: anybody@microsoft.com
as part of the HTTP response to a GET or HEAD request for that document.
The following example shows the correct usage for describing a character set. For more information, see the Character Sets section in the Author's Guide.
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=Windows-1251">
<HTML> <HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT=2> <TITLE>Reload Document</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <P>This document will be reloaded every two seconds. </BODY> </HTML> <HTML> <HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="5; URL=http://www.sample.com/next.htm"> <TITLE>Load Next Document</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <P>After five seconds have elapsed, the document "http://www.sample.com/next.htm" will be loaded. </BODY> </HTML>
