i have a page with a timer control. when the page is loaded, it fires a function. my issue is that the title of the page appears initially, but after the timer control function finished, the string in the title disappears. I commented everything out of the timer function and the title in the string still appears. what am i doing wrong?

A: 

Can you post your aspx? Is your page title being set programmatically (either client or server side)? Is anything relating to the page title inside an update panel?

every time i try to post the code, stackoverflow truckates it. nothing about the page title is in the updatepanel.

If you're using ASP.NET AJAX and programatically define the page title (as opposed to statically having it defined in your .aspx page), then you must re-define it again in your partial page update. It's just the way asp.net ajax works.

i am redefining programatically it in a the timer handler and pageload, yet it still does not set the title.

it looks like asp.net ajax does not like the asp:Literal control in the title bar. I removed the literal control from the title bar and replaced it with <% Response.Write(szTitle); %> that worked for me!
