How do I set the page title?

05-30-2009 1:23 AM |

In my navigation-based Silverlight application I need to be able to set the title of the page. Unfortunately, if I attempt to set it in OnNavigatedTo, it appears to be too late.

Where can I set it within the page class so that I can set it in time?

Secondly there's the scenario where you've using the.net RIA services where you have to wait until the service returns back the information that you need, how do we get the page title set correctly in that situation?

    HtmlPage.Document.SetProperty("title", "My page title");

There are a couple of problems with the approach of using the Html document, firstly it won't get set in the history unless it is done in time, which is the same problem of setting Page.Title directly Secondly, as I understand itm these properties are not available in the off-line mode.

Really the key issue is how do I set the title consistently early enough to be able to be used in the history.  The current design doesn't seem to even recognize that is important.

You will have to set it when the page loads then, outside Silverlight.
