Great!

I can loop through the meta tags using this (just a quick test, no error
trapping):

Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim url As String, n As Long, meta As Object
url = "http://www.thirdparadigm.org/"
With WebBrowser1
.Navigate url
DoEvents
Do While .Busy Or .ReadyState <> READYSTATE_COMPLETE
DoEvents
Loop
For n = 0 To .Document.All.tags("META").length - 1
Debug.Print .Document.All.tags("META")(n).tagName & " : " & _
.Document.All.tags("META")(n).Name & " : " & _
.Document.All.tags("META")(n).content
Next
End With
End Sub

Thanks. That's all new to me. Since the DOM doesn't
include anything outside of BODY I always just
assumed that the HEAD elements were not accessible.

It would still be nice to find a comprehensive
reference, though. There's no way to figure out
that all.("description") means something. It's not
a standard format. And how does one find comments?
tagName = "!" ?

There seem to be some goodies here lacking docs.

I think you're looking for a good tutorial. The documentation
has always been available....

No, I'm familiar with the DOM. I have a copy of
MSDN that includes the docs, and it's easy enough
to find the front page of Microsoft's online DOM docs.
(Thanks to Google. :)

I'm just talking about the specifics that I mentioned.
In my copy of MSDN the "applies to" list for "all" does
not list META or comment tags. And I don't see any
explanation of the (irregular) usage of all.("description").
Likewise, on the page for "all" at your link those things
are not mentioned, either:

The META tag is used to describe the HTML document.
You can give it any name/content values you like, whatever
makes sense for the document. Some common uses are
described at W3schools:
