How do I set the title of a page in a joomla component?

Question

I have a very simple joomla component that returns database results. It is not structured int the MVC format. How do I code the component so I can designate a page title? I wouldn't want to disable the existing functionality of joomla content articles.

After some trolling on the internet, I found this code. It works like a charm.

$browserbar= "anything you want";
$document = JFactory::getDocument();
$document->setTitle($browserbar);
