Jim, I'll explain the problem a little further. On each of our departmental intranet pages we are required to utilize a divisional header using server side includes (.stm). A departmental title can be placed within this divisional header using the syntax - <TITLE>Submarine Engineering Electrical Design:E13 Home</TITLE>. The whole thing will show up in the title bar, but only the text before the colon will show up in the divisional banner. The problem is that the PHB insists on the full departmental title, yet also insists that the page be legible at 800x600 with no horizontal scrolling. Both requirements are impossible to meet without shrinking the text size down. Although I had never done it before, I found that this syntax - <TITLE><H3>Submarine Engineering Electrical Design:E13 Home</H3></TITLE> satisfies both requirements for the PHB, but unfortunately makes me feel like an idiot because the title bar now shows "<H3>Submarine Engineering Electrical Design:E13 Home</H3>". ;)Woe is me :( Mark -----Original Message----- From: Jim DeMarco [mailto:Jdemarco at hshhp.org] Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2003 11:23 AM To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com Subject: RE: [AccessD] OT: CSS - External .css Doesn't the title tag hold the value that's diplayed in the title bar of the browser? How can you add formatting to that? Or am I missing something?

My current solution is an obvious hack, I was just hoping someone was aware of a more elegant hack.

I have a unique situation where I need to change a <TITLE> tag from its default size to <H3> size (PHB strikes again). Currently, the only way I've been able to do this is by placing <H3> tags within the <TITLE> tag. Although this approach does change the size as required, it unfortunately prints the <H3></H3> tags literally in the title bar. It seems that a CSS approach would address this, but an external .css is not loaded until the <HEAD> section...any ideas? Any pointers, references would be greatly appreciated, Mark _______________________________________________ AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com _______________________________________________ AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com **************************************************************************** ******* "This electronic message is intended to be for the use only of the named recipient, and may contain information from Hudson Health Plan (HHP) that is confidential or privileged.
