I would like to know how to set the page title by all means. I currently know two ways only :

<title>xxxxx</title>

And

<meta name="title" content="xxxxx" />

Is there more ?

The reason why i need to know that is because i have to create an application that reads the page title from a webpage so it must handle all cases.

Answer 1

javascript can change it. when load is completed, so actual title might not be the one written first time in html

$(document).ready(function ()
{
    document.title = "xxxxxxxx";
});

Answer 2

The only real way to set the title is using:

<title></title>

However, some sites might also have Opengraph, Dublin core or Schema tags.

As the title element is required as part of HTML, I would use that.
