Dublin Core meta tags and spaces

gavamd
Hi, thanks very much for your time, I have got a partially working solution to getting zotero to pull down the DC tags, but I seem to have an issue wherever there is a space.

E.g. my code is as follows:

<head>
<title>Services to Government</title>
<head profile="http://dublincore.org/documents/dcq-html/">
<link rel="schema.DC" href="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" />
<link rel="schema.DCTERMS" href="http://purl.org/dc/terms/" />
<meta name="DC.title" content="Services to Government" />
<meta name="DC.type" content="film" />
<meta name="DC.Rights" content="test" />
<meta name="DC.RunningTime" content="1"/>
</head>


Now, for this it works great for picking up the type of Film, and setting the rights. But within zotero, Running Time has a space in it, and I can't seem to be able to set that.

Now, this also applies to content, as for Type, if I set this to, for example , "Forum Post", it will set the type to web page, and web page Type property will be set to "forum post"

I'm sure this is just a simple oversight on my part, as the issue only really occurs when I attempt to use a space anywhere

Thanks again,

    Dublin Core doesn't have an element to describe the running time, so I doubt what you are trying to do can work:

    Re. forum post: Zotero uses 'forumPost' when importing/exporting (unqualified) DC.

    yes, it does seem like I have made the wrong assumption in thinking DC supports everything I See in zotero. With regards to "Running time" and "forum post" - these were only selected as examples due to having spaces in them, and that's when I noticed it wasn't updating certain fields and was wondering whether there was something I should have been doing with spaces.
