Easy, just do a simple DOM call to the meta tag if it exists and
gather its contents.
var m = document.getElementsByTagName('meta');
if (m.length < 1) return;
var x;
for (var i = 0; i<m.length; i++) {
if (m[i].getAttribute('name').toLowerCase() == 'keywords') x =
m[i].getAttribute('content');
}
Then x contains your keywords.
