Name
CONTENT — NN all IE all HTML all
Synopsis
CONTENT=”valueString"Required
The equivalent of the value of a name/value pair. The attribute is
usually accompanied by either a NAME or
HTTP-EQUIV attribute, either of which act as the
name portion of the name/value pair. Specific values of the
CONTENT attribute vary with the value of the
NAME or HTTP-EQUIV attribute.
Sometimes, the CONTENT attribute value contains
multiple values. In such cases, the values are delimited by commas.
Some of these values may be name/value pairs in their own right, such
as the content for a refresh META element. The
first value is a number representing the number of seconds delay
before loading another document; the second value indicates a URL of
the document to load after the delay expires.
Example
<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="2;URL=http://www.giantco.com/basicindex.html">
Value
Any string of characters. The string must be inside a matching pair of (single or double) quotation marks.
Default
None.
