Wordpress Page Title

[npnhome]

I am a wordpress theme designer. I design worpress theme and promote them as freebie. But I am not sure what is the best Template tag for title in the header.php file.
Is twentyten theme tag works fine?

If you want simple, then the TwentyTen way of displaying the document Title is fine.

If you want super-charged, then you would write your own functions to issue the Title. You can even go as far as providing Post Meta input boxes for Title, Meta Description, and Meta Keywords. If the user fills them in, then they will get displayed inside the Head.

You do realize that the DOCTYPE (http://www.w3schools.com/html5/tag_doctype.asp) declared in the twentyten theme is for HTML5, right? Which is not an official standard yet (contrary to what WHATWG thinks/says).

Implementors should be aware that this specification is not stable. Implementors who are not taking part in the discussions are likely to find the specification changing out from under them in incompatible ways. Vendors interested in implementing this specification before it eventually reaches the Candidate Recommendation stage should join the aforementioned mailing lists and take part in the discussions.

Adding the blog name and description will IMHO:
a) dilute the effectiveness of the web page title
b) create a web page title that is too long = wasted effort

Let's just hope they leave the HTML5 DOCTYPE alone!

Over-ruled counselor. You opened that line of questioning, and it does fall within the realm of header.php -- I think we should allow it.
