Getting blogger url for dublin core tags

I am trying to modify dc tags element for blogger, the tags is something like this:

<meta name="DC.Title" content="title" />
<meta name="DC.Creator" content="creator" />
<meta name="DC.Description" content="description" />

But this tags can only be applied in one page(static), if say, I have 100 pages then all of the pages will be using the same tags and hence the wrong ones.

I am trying to automatically generate the tags according to the page info and to get the meta description from the template, I am using below code:

<meta expr:content='data:blog.metaDescription' name='description'/>

So I modify it to something like this:

<meta name="DC.Title" content="<data:blog.pageTitle/>" />
<meta name="DC.Description" content="data:blog.metaDescription" />

I am trying this, so that the tags chang automatically according to the pages, and the same tags info isn't repeated in all pages. But it isn't working.

This content="<meta name="DC.Title" content="<data:blog.pageTitle/>" />" and <meta name="DC.Description" content="data:blog.metaDescription" /> will insert a static value for the DC.title tag and DC.description tag respectively instead of inserting a dynamic value. This is also a coding error and to fix that expr:content should be used.

<meta expr:content='data:blog.pageName' name='dc.title'/>
<b:if cond='data:blog.metaDescription'>
<meta expr:content='data:blog.metaDescription' name='dc.description'/>
<b:else/>
<meta expr:content='data:post.snippet' property='dc.description'/>
</b:if>

Use the following code instead -

<meta name="DC.Title" expr:content="data:blog.pageName" />
<meta name="DC.Description" expr:content="data:blog.metaDescription" />

You will notice that we have added expr: in front of the content attribute. This is needed for telling the Blogger XML parser to replace the data layout tag with its dynamic value according to the page being viewed
