* Using hhmts Timestamp in a <meta> tag, Feature Request

I understand how to use the <!-- hhmts start -->Last modified: Mon Mar
16 17:53:23 EDT 2009 <!-- hhmts end --> to update the timestamp in a
xhtml file, however, I would prefer not to have the timestamp
displayed.  I would prefer to use it in a <meta> tag, so that it might
work as follows:

<meta> name="Timestamp" content="Last modified: Mon Mar 16 17:53:23
EDT 2009 ">

At the moment I can insert it into a hidden tag such as:

<p style="display:none;"><!-- hhmts start -->Last modified: Fri Mar 13
21:53:45 EDT 2009 <!-- hhmts end --></p>

but this is not as clean as using a <meta> tag.

Please accept this as a feature request for a future version, unless
someone has a suggestion that would work now.

Thank you!

RIck

Hi,

I'd drop the hhmts-tags and switch to time-stamp.

Put something like this into your emacs-init-file:
(require 'time-stamp)
(add-hook 'write-file-hooks 'time-stamp)


And then create your HTML-files like this:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
<html>
  <head>
     <meta name="Timestamp" content="Last modified: 2009-03-17 09:35:39" />
 <title>Testing Timestamp</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Testing Timestamp</h1>

</body>
</html>
<!-- 
Local Variables:
time-stamp-start: "<meta name=\"Timestamp\" content=\""
time-stamp-end: "\" />"
time-stamp-format: "Last modified: %:y-%02m-%02d %02H:%02M:%02S"
End:
-->
----------------------------------------------------------------------


Cheers
Stefan

You hit. The format string crumbles and turns to dust.

Actually, I found I had to use:

(add-hook 'before-save-hook 'time-stamp)

instead to make it work.

(Debian  Emacs 22.2.1)

Thanks again for pointing this out to me!

Cheers!
