RSS FeedEvery web browser has a title at the top of the page and is specified in HTML. By default, the the title tag is located in the header of the HTML. Despite the default in HTML, it is possible to change the default title name with javascript. Below is a the basic snippet of javascript code that changes the current Web Browser title to “The Web Page title has been changed“.
document.title = "The Web Page title has been changed"
In the live demo below, the above snippet is inserted into the onclick event of an html input button. Before clicking the button below, note the current browser window title.
After clicking the button above, you will notice that the web browser title has been changed to The Web Page title has now been changed. Below is the actual code on how the button was created.
<input type="button" onclick="document.title='The Web Page title has been changed'" />

Hi, I came across this blog article while searching for help with JavaScript. I’ve recently switched browsers from Opera to Mozilla Firefox 3.1. Now I seem to have a issue with loading JavaScript. Every time I go on a page that requires Javascript, the site doesn’t load and I get a “runtime error javascript.JSException: Unknown name”. I can’t seem to find out how to fix it. Any help is very appreciated! Thanks
