Public Property MetaDescription As String

Property Value

String

The content of the "description" meta element.

Attributes: BindableAttribute

Exceptions

InvalidOperationException

The page does not have a header control (a head element with the runat attribute set to "server").

Examples

If you set the MetaDescription property of a page to "ASP.NET Overview", the following element will appear in the rendered HTML:

<meta name="description" content="ASP.NET Overview" />

Remarks

HTML meta elements can be used to improve search-engine listings. The "description" meta element is used by some search engines to improve listing previews.

If there is no "description" meta element in the head element of the page markup, the meta element is added to the page when the page is rendered. If the page markup already has a "description" meta element, this property gets or sets the content attribute of the meta element.

You can also set this property in the @ Page directive.
