how to embed code-behind variable into html <meta> tag

Jay

Is it possible to use the <% %> tag to embed a variable from page_load into a
meta tag in the aspx source? Somehow I am not getting the value out of my
variable properly - probably not using quotes correctly or something simple,
but after a full day of trying every possible syntax under the sun, I hope
someone can help.

Page_Load:
this.myKeywords = "keyWordOne keyWordTwo keyWordThree";

aspx source:
<head runat="server">
<meta name="keyword" content="<%=myKeywords %>" id="metaKeyword"
runat="server" />
</head>

results (source at runtime):
<meta id="metaKeyword" name="keyword" content="<%=myKeywords %>" />

note, my problem is that the results should be the value in myKeywords, not
="<%=myKeywords %>" as shown above.

Thanks very much

Hello Jay,

content='<%#myKeywords()%>'

Where myKeywords is the function, returning your data

Michael,
When you say to use a function, do you mean javascript? The only time I
have the value in the myKeywords variable is at Page_Load time. Are you
suggesting to use a function (or method for c#) with postback? How will the
method know what the value is (as Page_Load has already occurred)?
Rookie questions, sorry if this is the wrong group.
Thanks,
