Binaryworld - How to change ASP.net Page title Dynamically ? ... [ ASP.net -> General ]

You can use HtmlGenericControl() in ASP.Net pages to change the page title dynamically. All you have to do is, set an ID for the Html TITLE tag and make it "runat=server". Once you make it runat=server, you can access the control from the server side code and set any value for it.
First lest create our test aspx page

Test1.aspx

Click here to copy the following block

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE ID=pageTitle RUNAT=server> </TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
This is my sample ASP.net Page .. check the title
</BODY>
</HTML>

Now you have to declare a variable of type HtmlGenericControl
and set the .InnerText property of that variable in you code behind file. This is all you have to dynamically set the page title (browser title) in your ASP.Net page.

Test1.aspx.vb

Click here to copy the following block

Public Class Test1
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

Protected pageTitle As System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
     ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

  PageTitle.InnerText = "Page Title - " & Now()

End Sub
End Class
