Whilst the other replies are correct, I think they have not focused on what you are trying to achieve - which is impossible. You do not have total control over what people browsing your website see in the title bar of their browser. As others have explained, you can control some of it - through the TITLE tag - but other aspects of what appears there may be controlled by their own computer (e.g. the registry). -- Nigel Mackintosh
