Specifies metadata about a page in name/value pairs. For example, it can be used to specify the keywords that search engines can use to index the page.
You can use specific name attribute values to control external content caching. See Caching XDIME pages for details of the caching operation, and how you should use these settings.
The mcs:refresh name attribute value can be used to set the timing and URL values for refresh and redirect. See Timed redirect and refresh for details.
The syntax for expressing properties on the meta element differs in XDIME 2.
