<h1>The <contenttable> Tag</h1><p>
Quite often, it's handy to define small (one-line) content items quickly, in
bulk, directly inside the WMK file itself. The <contenttable> tag
provides a good way to do this.
</p>
<p>
Firstly, pick a delimiter character, such as <code>|</code>. Set the <em>delimiter</em>
attribute to this character.
</p>
<p>
Next, list a table of content names and their values, separated by a delimiter
character, one name-value-pair per line.
</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
<em>Note:</em> if you would prefer to load the content items from a separate
file, the <a href="contents.html"><contents></a> tag is better suited.
</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>
<em>Another note:</em> this is not the way to define data <em>about</em> other content
items (in other words, <strong><a href="metadata.html">metadata</a></strong>), such as titles, authorship, or brief
descriptions, as WebMake's built-in <a href="metadata.html">metadata</a> support will not be available
in that case. Embedding the <a href="metadata.html">metadata</a> into the content item using
<wmmeta> tags, or loading them in bulk using <metatable> tags,
should be used instead.
</p>
</blockquote>
