In your overall_header.tpl file you will probably find the line: <title>{SITENAME} :: {PAGE_TITLE}</title> make this : <title>{PAGE_TITLE}</title> and you will stop the site name appearing as part of the page title. Thus the page title will look more relevant. _________________ Family Friendly Shareware \| \| Web Design/Services \| Free Forums forum.myfreeforum.org

You will need to have used Admin/Edit Template/Logo to create your own personal style. _________________ Family Friendly Shareware \| \| Web Design/Services \| Free Forums forum.myfreeforum.org

If you are in edit a template, then there is a drop down list of the files you can edit. Overall_header.tpl is in the list. _________________ Family Friendly Shareware \| \| Web Design/Services \| Free Forums forum.myfreeforum.org
