Question

I know that in my /page.html I can do:

...
<body class="lift:content_id=main">
<div id="main" class="lift:surround?with=default;at=content">
  <title class="lift:head">TITLE_GOES_HERE</title>
...

... but it would be much more transparent for designers to be able to just put <title/> in the <head/> of a /page.html.

Would it be possible for a <title/> snippet used in /templates-hidden/default.html to somehow read the regular head <title/> in currently used /page.html?

Thanks!

Was it helpful?

Solution

I think the answer is rather "no", because Lift reads only the data inside id="???" in page.html. This is an architecture choice AFAIK.

You should ask on the mailing list, I think, if you propose any changes to the Lift architecture.

BTW, do you know that the title is overridden (inserted) if you use the SiteMap?: https://www.assembla.com/wiki/show/liftweb/SiteMap
