Title Fix 06.02.03

I just uploaded the fixes for the Title Bar bug. All Tutorials and How To's now have their title in the browser Title Bar as opposed to the URL.

We have a custom server control that renders the Head element including the Title element. I never wired the articles up to set the Head.Title property when the article is rendered. So, the fix was to add:

Head1.Title = Content1.Title;

...in the Tutorial.ShowContent.aspx.cs and the HowTo/ShowContnet.aspx.cs files.

Corrected the Title in a few other random files.

Posted the fix from the TechEd Wireless lounge, so that's all I'm adding now.

TechEd 2003 Day 0

Erika and I arrived in Dallas for TechEd 2003 yesterday (6/1/03). We got checked into out hotel, then went and registered at TechEd. We took a look around the Exhibit Hall as they were setting it up. Will checking e-mail we bumped into Stacey G. so we got the finall confirmation on the "Community Influencer" party.

We headed back to the hotel, got cleaned up and got ahold of Donny Mack, who had just arrived in Dallas. E and I headed back to the convention center where we met dropped into the Software Legends panel to say "Hi" to Eric Ewing, Billy Hollis, Yassuer, Juval, Don Box and Kieth Pleas.

We caught a bus to the Hyatt Hotel where we met up with Paul D. Sheriff, Jonathan Goodyear, Dene Welsch, and a host of others, including the overly energetic Steve Forte. From there we headed to the Circle R Ranch for a real live Texas BBQ.

Post BBQ we headed to a hotel forĀ a bash. The hotel suite was packed with poeple, champagne, wine and beer - and we felt right at home :).

Made it back to our Hotel around 2:00 AM (other went to the Dragon Fly bar). Now its off to the first "real" day of TechEd.
