** be appended to the name in the metadata search.
** e.g. passing name=metadataurl will result in the following medata entries
** being used:
**    ows_metadataurl_type
**    ows_metadataurl_format
**    ows_metadataurl_href
**    ... (width and height are unused for metadata)
**
** As for all the msOWSPrint*() functions, the namespace argument specifies
** which prefix (ows_, wms_, wcs_, etc.) is used for the metadata names above.
**
** Then the final string will be built from
** the tag_name and the five metadata. The template is:
** <tag_name%type%width%height%format>%href</tag_name>
**
** For example the width format will usually be " width=\"%s\"".
** An extern format will be "> <Format>%s</Format"
**
** Another template template may be used, but it needs to contains 5 %s,
** otherwise leave it to NULL. If tag_format is used then you don't need the
** tag_name and the tabspace.
