ColdFusion Page Title

[cards33]

On all of my cfm web pages the title of the page does not show up when you got to the page in IE or Firefox. Instead I just get Untitle Page in the tab. All of my html files show up fine. Is there something I need to change in my coldfusion files so that the page title shows up in the web browser?

Take an html page that behaves properly and rename to something.cfm. Put the new file somewhere where it is not subject to any application.cfm/application.cfc files.

Then run the page and see if the problem still exists.

Common issue, simple solution.

Remember that your application.cfm or application.cfc file gets processed first. I am guessing that your application.cfm/cfc file has a title tag that does not contain the name of your web application or whatever.

That is my problem. Is there something I can put in the title tags of the application file that will display each pages title in the web browser or will I have to store the application and cflogin pages in a separate folder?

Yes, the title of the page(s).

Or a variable that contains the page title(s) retrieved from some source.

Or remove the title tags from the Application.cfm framework file and put
it into content file(s) where many feel it is more appropriate.

Your choice.

Just recognize that the application file is called with every requested
template in its folder or sub-folders and take this into account to how
you choose.
