Anyone done a mod to change the html title depending on the page ?

Hi, I would like the have the <title> read something like:

when a user has opened the page for product a. Same for each page etc.

I have worked out how to code it, but wondered if someone else has already done it?

When you're on a product page, the product's metatags can be used for that.
You can configure these on a per-product basis in the Admin area. No need for special coding.

Ok, but that sounds like a manual process.

I would like it to be automatic for whatever page the user is on. Perhaps this is complicated by the fact I am also using the seo mod. Ironically this will actually make this task even easier.

Zen Cart uses the product's name for the TITLE tag. That's pretty automatic.
If you wish to override that on a per-product basis, you can do that as mentioned.

If you're only desiring to add xyz.com as a prefix to every TITLE tag, well, yes, you could change the code in your custom template to do that to suit your needs. Zen Cart adds the store name after the product name as part of its automatic TITLE tag generation.

Right, did I miss something there or what!

You're totally correct, thanks for the info, now I need to find where that title is being formatted and modify that.

Your custom html_header.php file works in tandem with your customized meta_tags.php module file to produce all meta-tags, including the TITLE tag.

While reading these posts I am still not finding the answer to my question. When showing an individual product, the title bar shows -

Product Name - $10.00 : The Store Name :: The Tag Line

I easily found how to turn the price off, thanks to the help secion and these forums -- but I don't want the store name and tag line to show either. I want ONLY the product name to show on all products and categories. Any way to globally do this?

Thanks in advance for your help!
