Question

I am using some nested layouts in Ruby on Rails, and in one of the layouts i have a need to read in a string from a div and set that as the title of the document. What is correct way (if any) to set the title of the document?

<script type='text/javascript'> $(document).ready(function() {      // ???  }); </script>

The following should work but it wouldn’t be SEO compatible. It’s best to put the title in the title tag.

<script type='text/javascript'>      $(document).ready(function() {         document.title = 'blah';     });  </script>
