echo-ing the page's title into the template

Post by janwin » Fri Jul 13, 2007 4:12 pm

Hi all,

I was wondering if it would be possible to echo the current static page's title into a template.

For example, I am currently having a in my template that is outside the user's viewport and just sits there for semantic and screenreader/seo purposes, like so:



So, I am obviously displaying the sitename here.
What I would love to do is enhance that by also displaying the current page's title (similar to the in the ), like so:

- PAGE TITLE

I was fiddling around with title;?>, but that does not seem to work directly in the template.

Any ideas? Then I'd love to hear them!

Hi Jan,

this should work.

getPageTitle(); ?>

Hi Robert,
Thanks! That does indeed work! Made the beginning of my day.... ;-D

Is there some kind of reference somewhere about these mainframe functions?

Greets,
