I know this should be a simple question, but it doesn’t seem to be working as simply as it feels like it should. I want to give the HTML page title the same name as the current page’s channel entry title, but because the {title} tag falls outside of the channel declaration, it simply shows up as {title} on the screen. How do I get around this?

{exp:channel:entries channel="mychannel" status="not closed" limit="1" disable="categories|member_data|pagination"}

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title>{title}</title>
....Works for me.

Hey jtnews,
Yep, you’ll just need to make sure you wrap the {title} variable in Channel Entries tags like Nico suggested. Does that do it for you?
