Answer 1

Trying to mix the retun value to contain presentation and data seems like a potential for confusion. Why not split it into two calls and fetch the data on success of the other?

Something like:

 $.ajax({
  type: "POST",
  url: "inc/"+view_page+".php",
  data: "id="+encodeURIComponent(pageID),
  success: function(html) {
    $("body > .container").html(html);
    $.ajax({
      type: "POST",
      url: "inc/"+data_page+".php",
      data: "id="+encodeURIComponent(pageID),
      success: function(json) {
        $("title").html(json.PageTitle);
      }
    });
  });
