HtmlMeta.Name Property
.NET Framework (current version)
Gets or sets the metadata property name defined by the HtmlMeta control.
Assembly: System.Web (in System.Web.dll)
The Name property, together with the Content property, defines a metadata property of the page.
The Name property is rendered to the name attribute of the resulting HTML <meta> element.
The following code example demonstrates how to use the HtmlMeta control to define HTML <meta> elements for a Web page. Two <meta> tags are defined, one listing keywords describing the page and one listing the date the page was created. The Name property is used to define the name attribute of each <meta> tag.
<%@ Page Language="VB" %> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <script runat="server"> Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) ' Create two instances of an HtmlMeta control. Dim hm1 As New HtmlMeta() Dim hm2 As New HtmlMeta() ' Get a reference to the page header element. Dim head As HtmlHead = Page.Header ' Define an HTML <meta> element that is useful for search engines. hm1.Name = "keywords" hm1.Content = "words that describe your web page" head.Controls.Add(hm1) ' Define an HTML <meta> element with a Scheme attribute. hm2.Name = "date" hm2.Content = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd") hm2.Scheme = "YYYY-MM-DD" head.Controls.Add(hm2) End Sub </script> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" > <head runat="server"> <title>HtmlMeta Example</title> </head> <body> <form id="form1" runat="server"> <div> View the HTML source code of the page to see the two HTML meta elements added. </div> </form> </body> </html>
