More likely Frontpage. In my experience, it's very hard to generate
/bad/ HTML using Expression Web,
I don't think there's anything bad with a tag like
<META content="MSHTML 6.00.2900.2180" name=GENERATOR>
as such. It's simply metadata and generally more useful than much of the
metadata that programs and authors puke on HTML documents.
_Different_ Microsoft programs generate such tags. For example, take an
ordinary Windows Internet Explorer, open an ordinary web page, and use the
command File/Save as, selecting the .mht format. Then open the saved file in
a decent text editor and look at the markup.
The .mht format means saving the page in the Internet message format, as a
multipart/related message, with one of the parts containing the HTML
documentm with the <META ...> tag thrown in. _That_ is questionable since it
gives false information about the generation of that document, really. (IE
also transmogrifies the document in other ways, at least by UPPERCASING tag
names, for no good reason.) The idea of the format is good, the
implementation is poor.
and I know it would almost certainly
quote the attributes at the very least.
There's really not much practical reason to quote an attribute value like
"GENERATOR" (and not much reason not to do that, of course).
