PublishingPage.Title Property

Gets or sets the Title that is displayed for this PublishingPage object.

Namespace:  Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing
Assembly:  Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing (in Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Property Title As String
    Get
    Set
'Usage
Dim instance As PublishingPage
Dim value As String

value = instance.Title

instance.Title = value
public string Title { get; set; }

Property Value

Type: System.String
The title that is displayed for this PublishingPage object.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
[System.ArgumentNullException]

Indicates that the value being set was a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), which is invalid.

[System.ArgumentException]

Invalid property value. The value cannot exceed 255 characters.

[System.UnauthorizedAccessException]

The current user does not have sufficient permissions to perform this action.

Remarks

The Title cannot exceed 255 characters. Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 2007 throws a System.ArgumentException exception if it encounters any excess characters. The Title can be set to an empty string in which case the Name is displayed.

To save changes after setting this property, call the Update method.

To set this value, the user must have both View and Edit permissions on the PublishingPage: View permissions to retrieve the page and to return its property values, and Edit permissions to change the value.

If this property value is used in HTML that is rendered in a browser, you should encode the property value in HTML to avoid the possibility of scripting attacks.

Examples

This sample sets some properties on a PublishingPage object, saves the new values, and publishes the PublishingPage.

Before compiling and running this sample, verify that this SPLIstItem is a list item in the pages document library of a PublishingWeb.

This sample presumes that the document library that contains the SPListItem requires content approval.

using PublishingPage = Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingPage;
using SPListItem = Microsoft.SharePoint.SPListItem;
using SPFile = Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFile;
using SPModerationStatusType = Microsoft.SharePoint.SPModerationStatusType;
using PublishingWeb = Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingWeb;
using SPUser = Microsoft.SharePoint.SPUser;
using PageLayout = Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PageLayout;
using PublishingPageCollection = Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingPageCollection;

            // values are visible on the published Web site.
            //
            publishingPage.CheckIn(checkInComment);
