jQuery .load (or $.ajax) to get and set page title?

rated 0 times [ 17] [ 5] / answers: 1 / hits: 18203 / 15 Years ago, fri, january 22, 2010, 12:00:00

So far...

$('#container').load(hash + ' #page','', function() { 

    $('#container').fadeIn('fast');

    document.title = $('#title').load(hash + ' #title').text();

    });

...doesn't work.
Is there a better/correct way to do this?

FYI: -

I've added the ID #title the tag (all pages/it's a PHP template).

The container is .fade(ed)Out beforehand (less important)

Thanks in advance.

The problem is that, at the time you assign to document.title, the $('#title').load(hash + ' #title').text() might not have finished yet. Try setting the new document.title in the callback of that .load.

UPDATE

Try:

$('#container').load(hash + ' #page','', function() { 

    $('#container').fadeIn('fast');

    $('#title').load(hash + ' #title', '', function(data) {

        document.title = $(this).text();

        });

    });
