This tag will return the column's default meta description. You set this in column defaults.
<dpMetaDescription default="default text" style="lower|upper|title|spaced|roman|decimal| noHtml|noHtmlStyle|identifier|scriptEncode" link="on|off" start="#p|#s|#w|#c|begin|end|resume" stop="#p|#s|#w|#c|begin|end|resume" length="#p|#s|#w|#c|begin|end" >

A T T R I B U T E S:
Notice that style="noHtml" is the default for this tag. This will prevent potential HTML from side effecting meta tags.
Please refer to the common attributes page for the common attribute descriptions.

E X A M P L E S:
<meta name="description" content="<dpMetaDescription>">

or better yet, use the summary if it exists and then fall back (default=) to the meta description if no summary exists:

<meta name="description" content="<dpSummary style="noHTML" default="<dpMetaDescription>">">
