Question

Every time you receive a new email, or something happens on your Facebook profile, your browser tab’s name changes. For example, on gmail, if you receive a new mail, it will change to something like GMail (1). How can I get the same effect in my application? I think it’s a Javascript thing, but I’m not sure.

Answer 1

This should be as simple as modifying the document.title property with JavaScript:

document.title = "New title (1) new message";
