Hi I was wondering if anyone can help with this PHP problem.

Is it possible to use the text in a H2 tag and use that to populate the page title dynamically.

I’d also like to be able to use this same technique to add the H2 text into the meta description – Can anyone help?

    That sounds like something that jQuery would excel at:

    <script type='text/javascript' src='jquery-1.4-min.js'></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function() {
        document.title = $('h2:first').text();
    });
</script>

    To modify the meta data, you would do more of the same. I strongly recommend jQuery – Novice to Ninja as an amazing way to get into great depth with jQuery.

    <html>
<head>
<meta description="" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function () {
        $('meta:first').attr('description', $('h2:first').text());
        alert($('meta:first').attr('description'));
    });
</script>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Testing 123</h2>
</body>
</html>
