<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript>
function start() {
document.title("XYZ");
}
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY onload="start()">
</BODY>
</HTML>

That should read:

<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">

The type attribute is mandatory and is all you really need.
function start() {
document.title("XYZ");

<snip>

document.title is a property, not a method. You assign to it - you
don't call it.

As the others have said, document.title="blah". Bear in mind, though, that
NN4 treats the document title as read-only, and will not let you change it.
Then again, NN4 is an abberation and the sooner it is no longer used, we can
all breath a sigh of relief ;-)

Cheers,
