How do I use this code for my page title.

<title><?=$page_title?></title>

MY site uses PHP and I want certain things from the page to also show as title of page. For example the City, and Type of listing.
for example if I want these two information to show in the title: Don't have experience in PHP

<? echo $info[listing_style] ?> (string)

and/or

<? echo $info[listing_address] ?> (string)

And once i get the right combination, where Do i put <title> ..........</title> ?

thanks.

<title></title> needs to be placed in the <head></head> section of your page.
[code]
<?php
$myTitle = "This is my website";

?>
<html>
<head>
  <title><?php echo $myTitle;?></title>
</head>
<body>
  This is where the content of the website goes
</body>
</html>
[/code]

As for where you get the information from, it could be set statically like it is in my above example or pulling from a Database such as MySQL which would/could be more dynamic.

This is what I did, got no title. .

<head>
<?php
$myTitle = "This is my website";

?>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us">
<title><?php echo $listing_style;?></title>
<META NAME="description"


And yes the information I want on the title dynamic/veriable from database

<?php
$lStyle = listing_style";
$lCity = "listing_city";
?>

<title><?php echo $lStyle . " " . $lCity ;?></title>

That's what Sharkbait (I misstated it earlier--gotit is the original poster).

Just remember, you're using PHP to create the HTML code nothing more.

You imply that you already have the variables set fir listing style and listing address, how ever you don't say where you get the information from.  If they are already set, you can use:

<head>

<title><?php echo $info[listing_style]." ". $info[listing_address]; ?></title>

</head>

However, you are going to have to make sure the bit of code that you use to declare these variables are positioned before the head tags.
