I have a function that writes meta tags... if a tag (or tags) is not specified, then it gets a default value... is there a cleaner way to do this? function print_pmeta ($type) { if ($type["description"]) { print '<meta name="description" content="' . $type["description"] . '" />'; } else { print '<meta name="description" content="generic description" />'; } if ($type["keywords"]) { print '<meta name="keywords" content="' . $type["keywords"] . '" />'; } else { print '<meta name="keywords" content="generic keyword list" />'; } } print_meta2(array( "description" => "A Real Description" )); c
