Hi Folks,

I'm trying to create a page that gets its meta info from a database but when viewed through a browser I just get no info listed at all;

here's the code:

<meta name="keywords" content= "<?php echo $row_rs_course_notes['keywords']; ?>">

<meta name="description" content="<?php echo $row_rs_course_notes['description']; ?>">

can anyone help me by explaining why it doesn't work?

Cheers

Dave

There's nothing obviously wrong with the code. If it's not working in
the meta tags, it sounds as though your recordset code is below the
document head. However, that's very unusual, because Dreamweaver inserts
all the necessary code above the DOCTYPE.

You need to check that your recordset is producing valid results.

Hi David,

I've tried that and if I insert the data anywhere else it works fine - except in the meta info bit.
