Page Title?

Nov 5, 2005 4:21PM PST

I made a website using Dreamweaver and hosted it, and it worked perfectly fine. However, for some reason, the pages do not have titles. That is, when I open them in Firefox/IE, the top bar as well as the taskbar button just say "Untitled Document." How do I give them a title? I already put titles in that little box in Dreamweaver above every page. Anything else I can do? Thanks for the help!

Put the title

Put the title between the

<head>

and the <Meta tags>

If you are using the same Meta tags for each page, then use the website name.

If you need more information, put your URL here

Hope this helps.

Make sure the code reads:

<title>Page Title</title>

Are you using frames in your site? If so, you might have the title in the wrong frame, and if you only put a title in one frame and it's the wrong one, the title won't show up in your browsers.
