Tips & Tricks
- Some browsers may react badly to titles of null length or greater
than 256 characters.
- If characters from outside the regular english alpha-numeric set are
to be used, the author should use character entities.
- Most graphical browsers display the document TITLE in the
Window title bar.
Browser Peculiarities
- Although it is a required element in the specification, most
popular browsers will not react oddly to its absence.
- Some browsers may also use the HTML TITLE as the file name to save.
This could cause problems with system file name limitations.
