The effect of having CR LF HT commands in a <title>tag</title>

[BinaryTris]

Hello.

I am looking at a customer site with a CMS system that is controlling the population of the meta TITLE

Currently it has the TITLE set as this

<title>(CR)(LF)<br />(HT)Site Details REMOVED - Customer name REMOVED(CR)(LF)<br /></title>

Naturally, we would prefer it to be

<title>Site Details REMOVED - Customer name REMOVED</title>

What affect would these commands have in the title! Google shows their title when you Google the company website... so I guess it can see it .... but GA "Top Site Content" widget shows it as blank ?

Any ideas?

Cheers

Hey

I really would not sweat this one. The Title can have page breaks and whilst it would be nicer from a code formatting perspective if it did not it really should not hurt. If it is tripping up the Google Analytics Top Content report though then that in itself is a good argument to make what is the simplest of simple fixes to the back end of the CMS>

Hope this helps!

Thanks Marcus. I agree, might as well fix it, it's not a big job
