Setting the page title from within a module 

Hi,

Is it possible to programmatically chnage the tite of a page (i.e. the title that appears between the page's <title></title> tags) from within a module on a page? Or is it too late to set the page title by the time a module is loaded? Obvious attempts such as adding the following don't seem to work:

Page.Title = productInfo.ProductTitle; 

I've tried adding in calls to the parent object before the Page but I suspect this isn't going ot be possible. Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks,

Matt

Re: Setting the page title from within a module 

Did you try putting the assignment in the "Page_Init" method?  Since that runs before anything else you might get a better result...just a guess though...you code should work, but obviously the DNN page is overriding it.

Re: Setting the page title from within a module 

Still no luck, I'm afraid. I suspect this would require changes to the Default.aspx.vb file in the Core code, which isn't ideal if you want to stay on an upgrade path. Bit of a limitation if you want search engine friendly pages with meaningful titles.

Re: Setting the page title from within a module 

I may be misunderstanding here, but to change the title programmatically in your own module:

VB
Dim myPage As DotNetNuke.Framework.CDefault
myPage = CType(Me.Page, CDefault)
myPage.Title = "This is the new title"

C#
DotNetNuke.Framework.CDefault myPage = new DotNetNuke.Framework.CDefault();
myPage = (CDefault)this.Page;
myPage.Title = "This is the new title";

I was able to make this work even after another module changed the title (the login module). The code above was swiped from signin.ascx.vb
