The HTMLMetaElement.scheme
property defines the scheme of the value in the HTMLMetaElement.content
attribute. The scheme
property was created to enable providing additional information to be used to interpret the value of the content
property. The scheme
property takes as its value a scheme format (i.e. YYYY-MM-DD
) or scheme format name (i.e. ISBN
), or a URI providing more information regarding the scheme format. The scheme defines the format of the value of the content
attribute. The scheme
content is interpreted as an extension of the element's HTMLMetaElement.name
if a browser or user agent recognizes the scheme.
This property is deprecated and should not be used on new web pages.
