I was creating some pages for my site this weekend, and just noticed that in IE6 (not sure about previous versions) after the title of the page comes a "- Microsoft Internet Explorer". Is there a way to block this by coding on the page?

Just wondering, it is not a huge deal, but it is annoying to try to put together a solid title for my pages and it always add the IE to the end.

That is more dependant on the program itself, I am sure you can hack it up if you chose to but as far as adding some code to your page that wont work.

It's on the client (browser) side; there's nothing you can do on your site to change it or get rid of it.

Of course, you could change it on your own browser, and then just forget about the fact that everyone else sees it! :)

Elite and JayC thanks for the response. I figured it was on the client side, but thought I would ask to see, you never know nowadays.

This is how I got rid of the IE on my IE ;) (Win2K) YMMV
  1. Launch regedt32.exe.
  2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main.
  3. From the Edit menu, select Add Value.
  4. Name the new value Window Title and make sure it's a REG_SZ data type.
  5. Enter the text you want to display as the string value.
  6. Launch a new IE window and you'll see your change.
  7. To remove the string, just delete the Windows Title value.
