Description
The
profile attribute is intended to work in
conjunction with the meta
element (in particular the scheme attribute of
that element) to provide a machine-parsable set of rules, most likely in
XML format. When presented with a meta element, the
user agent can read the contents of the profile referred to in the
head to get a clear understanding of the information
contained in the meta’s content attribute.
Value
URI of profile document.
