    great post, just one thing, there should be a forward slash added "/> to close the yahoo meta tag

     
  2. Anonymous Says,

    Thank you very much for this post. Above comment is true. The new Google templates require that you close the XHTML tags and not all sites generate these meta tags in XHTML format.

     
  3. DNA_Etc Says,

    Great instructions! With Google I did exactly what you said and I can NOT get the text to parse. If I move it I can but I can't get verified no matter what. Any tips? dnaetc@gmail.com

     
  4. DNA_Etc Says,

    Got it to work. I had to add a slash at the end of the language google gave me. /> Strange that they wouldn't include that closure.
