Naming issues with frames, please help

[admincraw]

I have built a site for a restaurant and I cannot get the pages to show their names in the browser. I believe this is due to the frames I have used with this site. Basically I have the index page named in Dreamweaver's page properties but when you call up the page (http://www.crawdaddysphilly.com) it is named Untitled which is really annoying.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

On your original page that calls the frames...put a <title> tag in there.

That should take care of it

Good Luclk

As BerksWebGuy pointed out, you need to put your <title> tags into your "index.html" page. You have it in your menu and main pages, but those are not where it's needed.


Also, just FYI, that 845x565 - 466K image that you have squeezed down into that 322x213 image holder sure takes an awful long time to load for anyone accessing the site via a modem connection.

Yeah...I didn't even notice that pic...its HUGE!!

I'm sure you can cut it down to around 30k-50k without losing much quality.

Hey guys, thanks for your response and suggestions. After reading your posts, I finally figured out what I had to do to fix it. I had to double click on the index IE file on my hard drive...then view source...then type in the title I wanted.

Also big thanks to the 2 of you who suggested to shrink down the picture. I didn't realize that by shrinking it in Dreamweaver, that it keeps the resolution. So I went into Photoshop and shrunk it down in there first. I hope that improves the 56K speed downloads.

Thanks again, and if anyone lives in the Philly area, come on down to South Street and check out the restaurant.

Another method is to use a gif or jpeg cruncher. There are several online crunchers that do a decent job

Dreamweaver.....

if you're using this..... you should take a little time..... and teach youself SSI....

DW.... makes it easier to use SSI's...... not only do you get away from the headaches of dealing with frames..... but it's easer for searchengines to index your site.....

SSI......."Server Side Includes"...... are especially important in a site that needs maintenance..... updates.... ect..... change one file..... updates " site wide"......

and most people don't even realize just how easy they are.....
