Understanding
and other tags
Summary information about the content of a page??”and a lot more??”is conveyed through
tags

tags exist, and you can insert them in your document just like other objects.
One
tag is included by default in every Dreamweaver page. The Document Encoding option of the
Page Properties dialog box determines the character set used by the current Web page and is displayed in

tag tells the browser that this page is, in fact, an HTML page and that the page

http-equiv, which is responsible for generating a server response header.
