Definition and Usage
Metadata
is data (information) about data.
The
<meta> tag provides metadata about the HTML document. Metadata will not
be displayed on the page, but will be machine parsable.
Meta
elements are typically used to specify page description, keywords, author of
the document, last modified, and other metadata.

Tips and Notes
Note: <meta> tags always goes inside the <head> element.
Note: Metadata is always passed as name/value pairs.
Note: The content attribute MUST be defined if the name or the http-equiv attribute is defined. If none of these are defined, the content attribute CANNOT be defined.
Differences Between HTML 4.01 and HTML5
The scheme attribute is not supported in HTML5.
HTML5 has a new attribute, charset, which makes it easier to define charset:
- HTML 4.01: <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
- HTML5: <meta charset="UTF-8">
Differences Between HTML and XHTML
In HTML the <meta> tag has no end tag.
In XHTML the <meta> tag must be properly closed.
