Don't ask me why , but I need to dynamically change the meta tags on my page with javascript. I can't seem to pull it off. Any ideas?

Yes, here is a code example on how to update document meta tag using


// First, get the array of meta-tag elements
metatags = document.getElementsByTagName("meta");

// Iterate through the array, listing them all
// Update only the Title meta tag
for (cnt = 0; cnt {
var name = metatags[cnt].getAttribute("name");
var content = metatags[cnt].getAttribute("content");

// List the original meta tag name=content
document.write(name + " = " + content + "
");

// Update the Title meta tag
if (metatags[cnt].getAttribute("name") == "Title")
metatags[cnt].setAttribute("content", "Better document title");

}


I think this is what you were looking for. Let me know if its not what you want.

I'm pretty sure that will do the trick as what I found was pretty similar.
