Understanding Meta tags: Definition, meta tag analysis of a webpage of choice and description of each meta tag
<meta>
tag defines metadata about an HTML document. Metadata is data (information) about data. Meta tags always go inside the <> element, and are typically used to specify character set, page description, keywords, author of the document, and viewport settings. (HTML tag)<meta name="viewport" content="width=1024, initial-scale=1"> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1"> <meta property="og:title" content="Apple Store Online"> (Apple Store Online, UK) | |
(Apple, 2023) Providing a brief description of each meta tag : 1- meta name : It provides a context for the value in the contents attribute of a <meta> element. The name attribute of the meta element defines the context of the content attribute. (Broadley and writer, 2017)2- meta http-equiv : X-UA-Compatible is a document mode meta tag that allows web authors to choose what version of Internet Explorer the page should be rendered as. It is used by Internet Explorer 8 to specify whether a page should be rendered as IE 7 (compatibility view) or IE 8 (standards view).(Kyrnin, 2019) 3- meta property : Meta property is just similar to meta tag the difference arises only when we talk about different editions of HTML. Basically meta property comes in use to basically link the elements in the body tag as long as they contain a property tag and basically the body tag is the main parent tag and then we use meta property to link another tag in the body tag.
