Is it possible to change what the title is later in the HTML?
My code currently doesn't check what the page it's loading is until it loads the content, at which time it requests the title, and I want it to set it there.
Is there like a PHP header that would do it?

You can do this with Javascript, I'm not sure exactly what to use, but you can find it somewhere... Just google for Javascript, you'll eventually find the information you need

There's such a double standard about religion in the modern world. Catholics can gather, wear white robes, and say "In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti" and be considered normal.

But if my friends and I gather, wear black robes, and say  "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn", we're considered cultists.

if you're using php surely you can just do summat like

Code: [Select]
<title><? echo $titlevar; ?></title>
Unless I'm missing something here?

He means after you are alread  ing the <body> tag, you set the title.  I don't think you can do it without JS, redoing some of the php, or using invalid XHTML/HTML. :/

Oh right, well then you can just do like;

<a href="#" onclick="document.title='pies!';">CLICKY HERE[/url]

Surely?
or like make a function and put it on the <body onload=""> event.

Ah, yes, that's it. I was trying to think of the JS function, but I haven't used JS in years <.<

Just put
Code: [Select]
onload="document.title='titlehere';"
in your <body> tag (ie <body onload="document.title='titlehere';">)

That again defeats the point, because If I know it there I'll know it in the head :S...
Well if I just put a script in the HTML it should work.

Well where are you getting the information from? A MySQL database? Or if you're getting it from a form, there's a way in Javascript to get that (fornmane.elementid.value I think). The point is that you have to have SOMEWHERE you're getting the title from, so when you get that information, use the document.title='titlehere'; command in Javascript

Ditto.
I'm confused.

Perhaps it's in the sub content pages? If so just have the script in the content page.

....
The content is called and figured out when it comes to the content table. Which is within the body....
And so I decided I could just change the title then in a script...

Yey for trailing off...

Oh and FIX'D.
