loose DTD: TITLE element

TITLE

Every HTML document must contain a <TITLE> element.

The title should identify the contents of the document in a global context. A short title, such as "Introduction" may be meaningless out of context. A title such as "Introduction to HTML Elements" is more appropriate.

NOTE

The length of a title is not limited; however, long titles may be truncated in some applications. To minimize this possibility, titles should be fewer than 64 characters.

A user agent may display the title of a document in a history list or as a label for the window displaying the document. This differs from headings, which are typically displayed within the body text flow.
