Set Page Title in code behind

[Nevyn Twyll]

In my code behind page, I want to dynamically set the page title of my page
(the one that shows on IE's toolbar). How do I do that?

I can't find GenericHtmlControl in the ASP.NET 1.1 docs or autocomplete.

Help?

Ah. Did you mean HtmlGenericControl?

Here's what I did that worked

System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl HtmlTitle;

HtmlTitle = (HtmlGenericControl) FindControl("htmltitle");

HtmlTitle.InnerText = "What I want it to say";

Just a word of caution with this though. Sometimes when you switch between
the designer and the HTML view, the <title> tag is reset such that the
@runat attribute is removed.

Maybe because it's called HtmlGenericControl
and not GenericHtmlControl.

See :

To get around the IDE rewriting of the <title runat="server".. stuff, I
usually put a literal control inside the title tag.
Like:
<title><asp:Literal runat="Server" id="litTitle"/></title>

If you insert this in HTML view, and swap to design view, you get the member
field automagically, and can set it's Text property in ie. Page_Load.. :)
