Thanks to a combination of some top posting, and your choice of place  
to put your response, I'm not sure if you are responding to the  
message your mail client claims you are, or to a much earlier message  
in the thread that was quoted in it, but...

If the former: The title property of the document object doesn't map  
on to any attribute, it maps directly onto the title of the document.

If the latter: The OP was saying that the approach he was taking was  
not working.
