Reverse Order Of Title Tag

Hi Guys

Is there a way that JavaScript can be used to reverse the order of a title tag?

Let me explain:

My title currently gets created dynamically by calling the breadcrumb path depending on which page I'm on. The title looks like:

PHP Code:

<title><?php echo $page_title; ?></title>

When I'm 3 levels deep, the title would look something like:
Accommodation | Guest Houses | My Guest House

I need the title to be reversed, so that on the same page it would show:
My Guest House | Guest Houses | Accommodation

Is this possible with JS?

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <title>Fee | Fie | Foe | Fum</title> <script type="text/javascript"> onload = function () {document.title = document.title.split (/\s*\|\s*/).reverse().join (' | ')} </script> </head> <body> </body> </html>

Thanx for that, but still not working.

This is what the source code looks like:

PHP Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html dir="ltr"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <title> Accommodation | Guest Houses | Ekala Guest Farm and Eco Tours Johannesburg </title> <script type="text/javascript"> onload = function () {document.title = document.title.split (/\s*\|\s*/).reverse().join (' | ')} </script>

Your code is missing \ in 2 places. Look at the example again.

This is how I inserted the code:

PHP Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html dir="ltr"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <title> Accommodation | Guest Houses | Ekala Guest Farm and Eco Tours Johannesburg </title> <script type="text/javascript"> onload = function () {document.title = document.title.split (/\s*\|\s*/).reverse().join (' | ')} </script>

This is what shows in "View >> Page Source":

PHP Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html dir="ltr"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <title> Accommodation | Guest Houses | Ekala Guest Farm and Eco Tours Johannesburg </title> <script type="text/javascript"> onload = function () {document.title = document.title.split (/s*|s*/).reverse().join (' | ')} </script>

That script is not what I posted.

Hi Charles

This is the script you posted:

PHP Code:

<script type="text/javascript"> onload = function () {document.title = document.title.split (/\s*\|\s*/).reverse().join (' | ')} </script>

Did you mean the entire code with html, head, body, etc.?

Nope, as A1ien51 noted above that's not what I posted.

My apologies. I wrapped php tags around the code, so it stripped out the \. Anyway, I used the code as you posted, but still no luck. Any ideas?

Thanx again for the help.
