I'm working on my mom's website right now, updating and fixing up some stuff, and I came across some HTML I didn't know. Does anyone know what the following code(s) do? [They're in the <head> area]

<meta http-equiv="Description" name="description" content="Somerville Manning Gallery specializes in the paintings of NC Wyeth. In addition to NC Wyeth, Somerville Manning features Peter Sculthorpe, Greg Mort, Jon Redmond and many others.">
<meta http-equiv="Keywords" name="Keywords" content="nc wyeth, n.c. wyeth, wyeth paintings, wyeth gallery, wyeth paintings, wyeth family, nc wyeth paintings, peter sculthorpe, john redmond, greg mort">
<meta http-equiv="PICS-Label" name="PICS-Label" content="nc wyeth, n.c. wyeth, nc wyeth paintings, works of nc wyeth, n.c. wyeth painting">

They are all for when someone searches in a search engine.

<meta http-equiv="Description" name="description" content="Somerville Manning Gallery specializes in the paintings of NC Wyeth. In addition to NC Wyeth, Somerville Manning features Peter Sculthorpe, Greg Mort, Jon Redmond and many others.">
This is what appears in the search engine giving a description of the website.

<meta http-equiv="Keywords" name="Keywords" content="nc wyeth, n.c. wyeth, wyeth paintings, wyeth gallery, wyeth paintings, wyeth family, nc wyeth paintings, peter sculthorpe, john redmond, greg mort">
These are keywords that, when search for, will help improve the place number of the website

<meta http-equiv="PICS-Label" name="PICS-Label" content="nc wyeth, n.c. wyeth, nc wyeth paintings, works of nc wyeth, n.c. wyeth painting">
I think these are keywords for searching for the images on the website

Hope that helps,
Thanks,
Chris :D
