Hi, when you do some search query like "john" via http://freelancersupport.com/modules/profile/search.php, you get this page: http://freelancersupport.com/modules/profile/search.php?uname=john&&op=results

The question is how do I assign the query text "john" as a title of the results page (the http://freelancersupport.com/modules/profile/search.php?uname=t&&op=results one).

Like when you search for something (lets say "translation jobs") in google, the title of the results page (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=translation+jobs&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq=translation+job) is "Translation jobs - Google search".

Thanks in advance

Add a line in /modules/profile/search.php to assign the required title to the template eg.
$xoopsTpl->assign('xoops_pagetitle','Translation jobs - Google search');

I am afraid you got it wrong. I don't need a definite title for the search page. I need it to be variable and depend on the your query. Like if you search for JOBS teh title is JOBS, or if you search for TRANSLATION the title of the page is TRANSLATION.

Try near the bottom just before this lines:
//hack
if (isset($_REQUEST['uname'])){
$string $myts->addSlashes(trim($_REQUEST['uname']));
$xoopsTpl->assign('xoops_pagetitle',$myts->htmlSpecialChars($string));
}

//end of hack
        
break;
}
include 
"footer.php";
?>

//hack
if (isset($_REQUEST['source_language']) && isset($_REQUEST['target_language'])){
$string $myts->addSlashes(trim($_REQUEST['source_language'])).' to '.$myts->addSlashes(trim($_REQUEST['target_language'])).' translators.';
$xoopsTpl->assign('xoops_pagetitle',$myts->htmlSpecialChars($string));
}

//end of hack
        
break;
}
include 
"footer.php";
?>
