I need advice, in the <head> section of a HTML file is it possible to replace

<META name="description" content="gaming site">

with

Code: Select all

<script language="text/javascript"><!--
document.write('<META name="description" content="gaming site">');
//--></script>

well I know its possible but what I mean is will it function the same way when robots that index the page ?

im unable to find an answer with google

Robots ignore javascript, so it would not be a good idea to.

There are some email harvesting spam bots that parse javascript looking for email addresses that are mangled in javascript, though. Not that that helps iceman with his question, but it's a good thing to know.
