META Tag Generator
Introduction
This is a ColdFusion application for generating HTML Meta Tags based on user input.
The source code of web pages typically consists of something like the following:
<html>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="default.css">
<title>META Tag and HTML Generator</title>
<meta name="keywords" content="HTML, WWW, META, tag, tags">
<meta name="description" content="A JavaScript program for
generating Meta Tags and HTML.">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="default.css">
</head>
<body>
<div align="center">
<h1>META Tag and HTML Generator</h1>
</div>
<p>This is a web page containing a JavaScript program
for generating Meta Tags and HTML.
</body>
</html>
For XHTML pages, the source code looks like this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="default.css" />
<title>META Tag and HTML Generator</title>
<meta name="keywords" content="HTML, WWW, META, tag, tags" />
<meta name="description" content="A JavaScript program for
generating Meta Tags and HTML." />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="default.css" />
</head>
<body>
<div align="center">
<h1>META Tag and HTML Generator</h1>
</div>
<p>This is a web page containing a JavaScript program for
generating Meta Tags and HTML.</p>
</body>
</html>
The Form
This ColdFusion application is provided to simplify the process of generating the Meta tags.
Don't be overwhelmed with these choices for the Head portion of a web page. Most of these META tags are rather obscure and rarely used. The only tags you need concern yourself with are Title, Site Description, and Keywords. In most situations, it's safe to ignore the rest and leave the defaults selected. Most of the time, you can omit most of the resulting META tags from your final document. Othwerwise you can place the resulting tags in between your <head> and </head> tags.
