Title question..

I am wondering if its possible to change a pages title other than in the title tags. Basically my website has the same title tag throughout the site as it uses header & footer files, so is it possible to change title within the body tags?

Thanks

 

Not to my knowledge.

The only other way to change the title tag other than <title> would be to use SSI to include a file which had the <title> tag inside of it.

Best wishes

 

If your header has <title> tags then take them out of the header and place them in each static page.

 

No. You would need to change your header file on the fly.

Add a variable to your header file like <title><?php echo $title ?></title> and then define the title variable before you include the header file.

 

Well there must be over 500 pages, so it'd be long :\

 

It may be painstaking but worth it in the long run.

 

Yeh true, thanks for help

 

Well it is possible using Javascript...

<script type="text/javascript">
 document.title = 'new title';
</script>

Code (markup):

But that would be horrible from an SEO perspective. As mad4 suggested above, your best bet would be to declare a $title variable before you include your header include file.

 

Yeh, all done now. Thanks for the suggestion
