title section dynamically

Dariusz Tomon · May 5, 2006

Hi

Is it possible to change dynamically <title></title> section in page. What I
want is to have <title> section depended on values retrieved from database.
The question could be extended to other sections from <HEAD> section.
If it's possible please provide an example (ideally in C#).

Best Regards

Darek

In ASP.NET 2.0 you can use Page.Title to set the title of the page. In
ASP.NET 1.1 you can put a Literal control in the title tag.

Hi,

Göran Andersson said:
<title><asp:Literal id="asdf" runat="server"/></title>

asdf.Text = "First page";

I prefer this way:

<title runat="server" id="pageTitle">Default title</title>

and then:

HtmlGenericControl windowTitle
= FindControl( "title" ) as HtmlGenericControl;

if( windowTitle == null )
throw new ApplicationException( "..." );

windowTitle.InnerHtml = "My title";

Doesn't the FindControl use the id rather than the tag name?

Why use FindControl ayway when you can reference the control directly?

Sorry, it was a typo. This should read

HtmlGenericControl windowTitle
= FindControl( "pageTitle" ) as HtmlGenericControl;

Why use FindControl ayway when you can reference the control directly?

That's correct.
