    A bit like the way a standard bread crumbs script will display the page title on the page itself...

    Is there any bit of JS that can be placed in html that will display the title of the page (alone)??
    ie. Whatever is in the <Title>PAGE TITLE</Title> tags

    Any help/suggestions appreciated
    TY

    David.

    <script language="Javascript>
<!--
var titles = document.getElementsByTagName("title");
document.write(titles[0].text);
//-->
</script>

    I'm using DW alright. I've had a look on the exchange now but cant find exactly what I'm looking for.

    if you have a .mxp that will do it, it'd be much appreciated.
    Thx

    the code is missing a quote .. it should be "Javascript" and not "Javascript"

    putting in the quote at the end and it works in IE anyway

    Ah lads, if ye were sharp enough ye would have spotted the a similar typo in my own post .. the second Javascript should have no closing quote to make my point valid ;)

    TBH CG,
    I did notice, but I didnt want to be pedantic :p

    Anyhoo...

    Works fine alright in IE but no luck in Opera or NN 4.7
    I'm not too bothered about NN but would like it to work for opera v6 at least.

    Anyone got any other ideas??
