I am not sure if this is an HTML question or a Coldfusion question. Since I am using both I will ask in the in the CF forum. I can not get the title to show up on the top task bar in IE. I am not sure if it is my code or not, here is my code for the entire page

<cfsetting showdebugoutput="no">

any help would be great

If this is the output of your HTML code, the "<cfsetting showdebugoutput="no">" should not be there.

Hey Stewie,

I don’t think there is a problem where you have "<cfsetting showdebugoutput="no">", now I could be wrong. The only thing I did see is the your “<link rel=… > is not within the <head> tags. Maybe this will help, if not just let me know.

Take care,

*EDIT* I copied your code into my editor and tried to preview the file on my ColdFusion server. The title showed up when I view it in Firefox but not in IE. I’m not really sure why it worked in the one but not the other. Maybe this info can be useful to someone that knows what’s going on. Good luck with your problem Stewie. *EDIT*

Walyer,

I had originally had the <link rel..> inside the <head> tags. I moved it out thinking that was what was causing it but I guess it wasn't. I also thought that it was the CF server that I was on, but if you put it on yours and it still didn't work I guess that is not the cause of it either......well I am at a loss :-|

Do you get any kinda error when you try to preview? I ask this 'cause when I previewed your code on my server I got an error and the error was in place of the title.

I haven't tried to preview. I will have to try that tonight

yeah, I got the same error.... I am running out of ideas. hahaha

I have figured it it. it was in my application.cfm file. I had this in there
<title>Untitled Document</title>
once removed all the correct titles showed up

Sweet I was having a hell of a time with it. I even looked at some of my work to compare and found that alot of it also doesn't show the title.

Well good to see it all worked out.

yeah, I was staring at it and trying differnet things for hours. than I just messed with a file and figured out how to fix it :) funny how things work haha
