How can I update the title of the tab in the same way GMail/Facebook does?
How is it possible to update my browser title value, like Facebook and Yahoo, to show a number that represents notifications/pending items/new messages etc.
Right now, my Facebook page title/tab reads [ (3) Facebook ], which indicates I have 3 unread notifications.
How is this possible? I reckon it uses JS and AJAX but I maybe wrong. Has anybody got any snippets, links or suggestions that will get me started in this?
It’s a really nice feature but don’t seem to find many websites using it, neither can I find any decent tutorials or examples.
Many thanks
It’s just a property of the document object

Be aware that it will produce some really odd bookmark names.
