Browser caption with topic title - How to?

HI guys,

First of all, sorry if this is being posted in the wrong section.

I just wanted to know how can i set the browser window caption using the topic title.
This way each topic would have its own browser window caption.
This is just to improve search engines indexing...

TIA all

I'm a little lost with what you mean by browser window caption? Is there any way to give us a url to a specific example or perhaps a screenshot?

Thanks.

He means he wants the title of the Browser page show the title of the caption. :roll:

To be able to control the <title></title> of the browser to match the text title of the page.

Yup... that's right.

I just want to know which files should i edit so i can achieve that.

If you look closely, you should notice that the browser window title (caption) right when posting in this topic shows "nukemods.com Forums-posting-Browser caption with topic title - How to? - [Microsoft Internet Explorer]".

Anyway, i'm sure i can modifythe <title> tag content somewhere in phpnuke's files....

In nuke php files you can have this

$pagetitle = "TITLE YOU WANT ON PAGE";

Yes... but what i want is that the title string should be retrieved from the topic title currently being displayed...

For instance... if this nuke had that tweak, we should be reading on the browser window: "nukemods.com - Foruns - Browser caption with topic title - How to?"

ok..for the Forums to show the Topic title in the title bar fo the browser, do this:

open

modules/Forums/viewtopic.php

add this

Code:

$page_title = $lang['View_topic'] .' - ' . $topic_title;

after this line

Code:

include_once("includes/bbcode.php");

I have it working here:

ACTUALLY it works in my version in most all of the Forums. I think I have the latest updates. Nuke 7.6 with 3.2PL and phpBB 2.0.21

I gave you a link to an addon to do it, why is it still being discussed????
