Browser page title not showing

My VF Sites application is working fairly well now but there is one nagging detail - the title attribute on the apex:page tag does not seem to flow into the browser.

 

<apex:page controller="SitesSearchCustomController" action="{!init}" showHeader="false" sidebar="false" title="Foo">
 results in a browser page that looks like this (note - no title appears)
 Firefox 3.0.8
 
or (Chrome):
 Chrome
 
or IE7:
 
 
What am I doing wrong?

Eric,
 
you have the showHeader attribute set to false. In this case you need to insert your title tag:
 
 
<head><title>my page title</title></head>

Bulent - this worked!  Please add to the documentation for the apex: page component with respect to the title attribute.

When using a Site Template I often need to specify <head></head> elements in both the template and the page ... and the source for the page ends up with two <head></head> sections  ... as well as two <doctype....> tags.


 


How does the Sites server merge html elements for pages when using a site template and are there any recommendations on how to keep the resulting html output clean?


 


Thanks, 


Ron
