Bug description:
From ChangeLog:
>- New Function. void get_meta_tags(string filename); Parses filename until
> closing head tag and turns all meta tags into variables prefixed with 'meta_'.
> The below meta tag would produce $meta_test="some string here"
> <meta name="test" content="some string here">
Will you people please stop clobbering the global namespace with fixed names? Why isn't this
particular function
returning a nice anon array, which can then be assigned as desired?
$myarray = get_meta_tags($somefile);
and all is well.
