Is there a way of stopping " - Microsoft Internet Explorer" being added to
the browser window title ?
eg, I want it to say:
My Website Name
and not
My Website Name - Microsoft Internet Explorer
I have added full stops (periods) but this looks messy:
eg, My Website
Name.............................................. ..............

The only way is to change it on the user's computer by rewriting a file
somewhere. So drive around and stop off everywhere to fix that.
Seriously, it's not something you can control.

Of course it is.
Just add a 'few' to your preferred page <title> ;-)

How many? It'll eat up a lot of code - and it'll still be there, if only
shoved off right.
Point is, why bother? If the user notices at all that the brand is gone,
they may suspect that you have tinkered with their settings and hate you
forever. That's bad for business. usually.

Very many :-)

Invisible if you shove far enough.

I didn't say it was a good thing to do, just that it is
possible. Anyway, I did put in a ;-) to make sure no one
would think I was too serious.

No. Nor should there be. Your users aren't counting on you to redesign their
software for them during the short period of time they happen to be looking
at your site.

Use a different browser?
Seriously, this is a browser feature, and beyond your control as Web author.

The <TITLE> tag is HTML smart arse... I thought that there may have been
additional parameters available to it (eg, class or style) which may have
affected things. It appears that this is purely a browser related issue -
but how would I have known if I didn't ask the question? We can't all be
super brains.
If you have nothing to say other than to patronise and put people down then
don't bother saying anything.

Of course there is -- use a better browser.
Now, what was your question about HTML?
In other words, if you have questions about how to operate your
browser, you'll find a different newsgroup more appropriate.

While I will say Stan's response doesn't count among his best, please
respect that we do expect you'll do a bit of research into the problem
before opening discussion here. (Unless you assumed this was a help desk.)

Those are attributes, not parameters. (Yes, that's pedantic, but since
you called someone else here a smart arse, you've opened yourself up to
yet more criticism.)
It appears that this is purely a browser related issue -
Of course, since the question was how to control the title bar in your
browser. This is not relevant to html authoring for the www.
If you have nothing to say other than to patronise and put people
down then don't bother saying anything.

In your registry, look along the branch
My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Microsoft|Internet Explorer\Main\Window Title
The value of that key can safely be deleted.
The effect of this will be limited to your IE browser only, but for each and
every website you visit.

How would you have known, you ask? Have you visited any sites where the
"Microsoft Internet Explorer" isn't displayed?
That should have been a clue.

All of them, in my case... the title bar *does* say "Mozilla" in it, though.
