meta language

S

Sylvie Faulkner

Hi

I'm using Frontpage 2002 and getting a problem when updating my documents. It will add in these 3 meta:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us"><meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0"><meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">

I don't have a problem with that except when I update my french documents, sometime it will change my meta :
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="fr-ca"> to
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us">

Can I have that default feature remove since I already have my meta for the language set up in my pages ?

Thanks

1. Choose Web Settings from the Tools menu.
2. Click the Language Tab.
3. Set Default Page Encoding to <none>.

This will initialize your page encoding to fr-ca or en-us,
depending on how your keyboard is set when you create a
new page.

Then, however, if your page is initialized to French and
you update it with your keyboard set to English, FrontPage
will add <span lang="eng-us"> and <span> tags around
everything you type. And vice versa.

Pick your poison.

The easiest choice may be to store your French and English
pages in separate subwebs, and set the language settings
for each Web appropriately.
