But is that really the "correct" behavior. I though that Apache httpd would note those and return the right header since a web page author in general has no way to control HTTP headers besides using meta tags. Isn't the entire purpose of those tags to give hints to the http server what it should send back? I know that I use http headers set through meta tags for compact P3Ps and it seems to work. David
