Correct Syntax for Meta No Index

[bjs2010]

Hi,

Is this syntax ok for the bots, especially Google to pick up?

Still waiting for Google to drop lots of duplicate pages caused by parameters out of the index - if there are parameters in the querystring it inserts the code above into the head.

Thanks!

The syntax for that is absolutely spot-on.  Sounds like a great solution to insert the code if querystrings are present.  A canonical tag would also give Google a firm suggestion not to count the dynamic URLs, but this very definitive. Hope the code is reliable!
