SharkBait Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 <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.

doni49 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 That's because echoing the wrong variable. Re-read gotit's message.

doni49 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 <?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.

roopurt18 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I think you should pick up a PHP programming book and start there.

JasonLewis Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 defiently. if you look carefully at the php code given. $lStyle is set as listing_style which explains why it is outputing listing_style on your title, the same for listing_city.listen to roopurt18. go learn the basics of php...

chiprivers Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 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.
