FP2000: Content-Language META tag is not preserved after editing Page Properties

ID: Q219122

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft FrontPage 2000

SYMPTOMS

A custom content-type Meta Tag that contains the language variable is not preserved after you make modifications in the Page Properties dialog box.

CAUSE

When you modify the properties of a page, FrontPage will reset the META tag that contains the content-language system variable.

RESOLUTION

Make your changes in the Page Properties dialog box before you make custom modifications to the <META> tag that contains the language system variable.

MORE INFORMATION

<META> tags that contain system variables use the HTTP-EQUIV attribute. The HTTP-EQUIV attribute specifies whether the content of the META tag is bound to an HTTP response header.

In most cases, these tags perform functions that relate to the browser's interpretation of a web page. These <META> tags can be used to set the default language, refresh the page, or even redirect the browser.

The following is an example of a Meta tag that uses a system variable in FrontPage:


<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
