Re: Page title changes when call functions!!

My code is quite long so I try to make it short by describe it instead of posting the code here. Please tell me if you need more information. There are two functions in a file named a.inc. One function is named output_header($title) and another function is named output_content($content). The former is used to set the page title and the latter is used to printout the content of the page. There are many files that contain HTML code, which assemble for a very nice page frame, e.g. file1.inc for the menu bar and file2.inc for the footer. In the index.php, it starts by setting the page title to something, for example "Home Page". Then comprise the page frame by including file1.inc and file2.inc. In between, it calls the function output_content($content) to print the content of the page. Thus, the code will look like this... <? .. output_header("Home Page");' .. require(file1.inc); //print the menu bar output_content("Some message as a page content"); .. require(file2.inc); //print the footer ?> When I open the index.php through my IE5, the page title is not "Home Page" but http://www.xxx.com/index.php instead. Hope this information is good enough and thanks for trying to help.
