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.
