The accepted forms of meta keywords tags that htdig recongizes are: <meta keywords="words"> <meta htdig-keywords="words"> <meta name="keywords" content="words"> <meta name="htdig-keywords" content="words"> The last two forms are controlled by the keywords_meta_tag_names attribute, so any names listed there are allowed in this way. The default ones are keywords and htdig-keywords. The first two forms above are not configurable. As long as your documents are using one of these forms of the tag, and you haven't set max_keywords to 0, keywords should behave as you expect. If they don't, try running htdig with at least four -v options to see what words are being indexed for a given document. Meta description tags are also indexed, but only to the maximum length allowed by max_meta_description_length (512 by default). -- Gilles R.
