I assume it should still be SGML.
Ah yes, you clipped the part where I said, "not being an SGML adept...".
Then neither of the two syntaxes is
any good. The second isn't even valid SGML. A better way would be to
declare PURPOSE as NAMES. Then it can be a list of names. Attribute
value lists in SGML are written without comma, only white-space
separate the list items.

You are in a twisty little maze of URLs, all alluring.
This would be, then, <meta purpose="index header" ...>? At any rate, I'll
bow out to your expertise on the details, here...
