I am using WebMatrix (I’m like, addicted to it), for a new site (well, it’s just a new version of an existing site) and I have this:

_SiteLayout.cshtml:

@{
   <!DOCTYPE html>
   <html>
    <head>
     <meta charset="utf-8" />
     <title>@Page.Title</title>
    </head>
    <body>@RenderBody()</body>
   </html>
}

and…

Default.cshtml:

@{
   Layout = "~/_SiteLayout.cshtml";
   Page.Title = "SexyDomainManager&reg;";
}
<p>Etc</p>

Which should make the title of the page look like this:

SexyDomainManager®

However, it doesn’t. Instead, you can actually see &reg; in the title. This only happens when I use @Page.Title. Why? And how do I fix this?

    I don’t know “WebMatrix”, but it obviously HTML encodes the values before including them in the output, so that the developer (you) doesn’t need to, which is correct behavior for a web framework.

    So if you what the title to contain “®” then write “®”:

    Page.Title = "SexyDomainManager®";
