page.php:
header.php:
&
Add this code on top your page
<?php
$title="This is the new page title";
?>
Add this code on your Template header file (include)
<title><?php echo $title; ?></title>
you can set using JavaScript
<script language="javascript">
document.title = "The new title goes here.";
</script>
Expanding a little on we.mamat's answer, you could use a preg_replace instead of the simple replace and remove the need for a %title% altogether. Something like this:
<?php
ob_start();
include("header.php");
$buffer=ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
$title = "page title";
$buffer = preg_replace('/(<title>)(.*?)(<\/title>)/i', '$1' . $title . '$3', $buffer);
echo $buffer;
?>
What you can do is, you store the output in a variable like:
header.php
<?php
$output = '<html><title>%TITLE%</title><body>';
?>
PS: You need to remove all echos/prints etc so that all possible output is stored in the $output
variable.
This can be easely done, by defining $output = '';
at the start of the file and then find/replace echo
to $output .=
.
And then replace the %TITLE%
to what you need:
<?php
include("header.php");
$title = "TITLE";
$output = str_replace('%TITLE%', $title, $output);
echo $output;
?>
Another way is using javascript
in your code, instead of:
<title><?php echo $title; ?></title>
Put this in there:
<script type="text/javascript">
document.title = "<?=$title;?>"
</script>
Or jQuery, if you prefer:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$(this).attr("title", "<?=$title;?>");
});
</script>
It's very easy. Put this code in header.php
<?
$sitename = 'Your Site Name'
$pagetitle;
if(isset($pagetitle)){
echo "<title>$pagetitle." | ". $sitename</title>";
}
else {
echo "<title>$sitename</title>";
}
?>
Then in the page put there :
<?
$pagetitle = 'Sign up'
include "header.php";
?>
So if you are on Index.php , The title is Your Site Name. And for example if you are on sign up page , The title is Sign up | Your Site Name
Use a jQuery function like this:
$("title").html('your title');
