Question about meta tags. #34

Closed frju365 closed 5 years ago

I have a long question : Can we get rid of useless meta tags ? I wanted to know what are the goal of these meta tag "http-equiv" and "pragma" because, even if I know what are the goal of this header, I don't find the reason of no using php header. :-)

I did a test and these tags are simply not working with my browser for example. I did a test :

Perhaps there is something I don't understand, but I checked on w3c website about this meta tags and I found that they doesn't recommend to use it (cf. W3C validator).
