Best Practice for <title>?
Hi!
I have an e-book with several chapters. That is, several sections. How should the <title> tag be used? For the e-book title or for the chapter title? Thank you! Dr. T. |

If you mean the title tag inside the header of the html, it is totally unimportant what is inside it, since it isn't used for anything, at least as far as I know.

The text of the title tag isn't used by any ebook software I'm aware of. Put what you like there, or leave it blank. I find the name of the (x)html file to be far more useful (for descriptive purposes).

Sorry. I didn't mean that I actually put the name of the file IN the title tags. It ocurrs to me now that my post could easily be taken that way.
What I meant was: I'd spend more time worrying about the name of an xhtml file than I would about what went in a title tag. You'll get far more value from it. |

Then i totally agree. It makes editing much more easier when a filename tells you whats in.
