# I suspect I have failed to understand something. If a keyword header
# exists then I don't understand why this shouldn't be used as a HTML
# META keyword entry. These perform the same function - in my FAQ,
# which is maintained in HTML, they *are* the same. I would object if
# your META keyword entry differed from my keyword header.

I am not looking to complicate things here. Quite the contrary. I would
use what the author supplies and I would not invent any. I really don't
have the time to review and label each of the 3700+ faqs. :)

# If you want people to agree on a way of automatically creating a META
# keyword entry when there is no keyword header, then I suspect you are
# out-of-luck. If somebody cares about keywords then they will have
# taken the trouble to include a keyword header. If they don't care
# about keywords enough to include a keyword header, then why would they
# care how you create a META keyword entry for them?

:-) Your right, I probably am but a little educational push can't hurt. :)
If people would like to see all existing keywords converted in to META tags
then I can do that. At least it would be effective for those who took the
time to do it.
