3.0 Special HTML META Tags

This section describes the special META tags (or elements) that are recognized

by the Naurtech Web Browser and are used to convey special instructions to the

browser. The META tags use the standard HTML format but are not recognized

by standard browsers. These special META tags assign hotkeys, control the

scanner, configure the device, and other tasks.

A META tag has the form

The Naurtech Browser supports a unique set of “identifier” values. However,

because there is no current standard for these META tags, we also recognize

most of the ad-hoc and de-facto extensions available in other products. In

particular, we support most of the Symbol Pocket Browser and Intermec iBrowse

META tag identifiers. For the iBrowse META tags, we recognize the identifiers

with or without the leading “IBrowse_” text.

The following table summarizes the supported identifier values and their

functions. Following the table are individual sections with detailed descriptions of

the identifiers. All identifiers are effective only on the page that contains them

unless otherwise specified in the description.
