Using special Meta Tags with Inspyder InSite

This guide gives a brief introduction to using special meta tags with InSite (at this time there is only one supported special meta tag; 'insite_words').

The InSite_Words Meta Tag

InSite's custom word list is stored on the local hard drive of your computer. Companies who have multiple designers working on a single project often find it tedious to keep custom word lists in sync between computers. To combat this problem, InSite (since version 1.2.5) supports the "InSite_Words" meta tag. This meta tag allows you to specify special words that InSite should not flag as spelling mistakes.

Using the Meta Tag

To use the Meta tag, simply include it in the <HEAD> section of your HTML document like you would any other Meta tag. The name of the tag is "insite_words", the content field contains the words you would like InSite to ignore as it crawls through the site. Words in the Meta tag must be comma separated.

Here is a sample InSite Meta tag from our site:

<META name="insite_words" content="Inspyder, InSite, FilterWeb, screenshot, screenshots, Marketware, SmartSense, Mozilla, Firefox">

As InSite finds these meta tags, it will temporarily add the words to the custom dictionary. When checking the website is complete, these words are removed from the custom dictionary so they don't affect the spell checking of other sites.

Something to Consider

As InSite crawls your pages, it accumulates the words found in the meta tags. This means you do not need to include each custom word on each page. Including them on the root page is sufficient for the entire site. You can also include them on pages within your site, however they will not be added to the custom dictionary until that page is crawled.
