  • HTML in description

    In the result page are shown HTML-tags, when you use them in the description

    1. Photogallery Capanna Adula UTOE [Photogalleries]
    Bildergallerie <strong>Capanna Adula UTOE</strong> und ......

    it seems to be a bug.

    Are these your meta descriptions? That is, are they on your page in a meta tag like so:

    <meta name="DESCRIPTION" content="Bildergallerie <strong>Capanna Adula UTOE</strong> und">

    If that's the case, then it's not valid, because you can't have HTML values inside the meta tag content.

    Otherwise, give us the URL to the page in question and we can take a look.

      >> <meta name="DESCRIPTION" content="Bildergallerie <strong>Capanna Adula UTOE</strong> und"

      Yes! And it is W3C valid. For "content=" any string is allowed. I have changed my description.

        This is what is stated in the HTML standards, for a META data content field (CDATA).

        "The first occurrence of the character sequence "</" (end-tag open delimiter) is treated as terminating the end of the element's content. In valid documents, this would be the end tag for the element."

        So I don't think it is valid HTML.
