All HTML documents, including those in frames, have a title
element in the head
section that defines in a simple phrase the purpose of the document. This helps users to orient themselves within the site quickly without having to search for orientation information in the body of the page.
Note that the (mandatory) title
element, which only appears once in a document, is different from the title
attribute, which may be applied to almost every HTML element.
This example defines a document's title.
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>The World Wide Web Consortium</title>
</head>
<body>
...
</body>
</html>
