3.7 Page Properties
All web pages should have a title. The title is the text that appears at the browser window title. For instance, at Microsoft Internet Explorer, the page title is displayed like:
The page title is usually appended with the browsers name like "Microsoft Internet Explorer" or "Mozilla Firefox".
When you create a new page in Easy Web Site Creator the default page title will be blank, so browsers will display the page URL at the title bar (like Internet Explorer) or just the browser name depending on the browser you are using.
To edit the page title, press the Document Properties at the page editor toolbar: 
It will open a window like:
Important Note:
You must have disabled your pop-up blockers while you edit your pages. In Internet explorer native pop-up blocker you can disable the blocker just for your website. In other pop-up blockers like Google one, you may need to disable completely the blocker when you edit your pages.
If you have pop-up blockers enabled, the page properties, image, links or preview windows may not be displayed.
The Document Properties window has 4 tabs:
General
The main setting here is the Page Title. You should always type a page title. It can be just you site name or you can use a page-by-page naming schema.
The other settings in this page are not so important and you may ignore them if you are using a Western European language.
Background
Here you can set your page background image or color.
If you select a background image for your page, it is a good idea to select also a matching background color since it will be displayed while your page is loading, before your browser completes the background image download.
The background image default behavior is to be tight to your page contents, so if you scroll horizontally or vertically your page, the background will move accordingly. If you would like the background to be tight to the browser window instead, select the 'Non-scrolling Background' option.
To remove an image from you page background simply clear the content of the Background Image URL text box.
Colors and Margins
In this page you can select the page default color for text and links. If those fields are left blank, browsers will select default settings when rendering your page. Even if you set this attribute for your page, you can override the color for some texts and links using the editor text color selector.
In this page you can set also the margins for your page.
Meta Data
The data inserted in the Meta Data tab will not be usually show to your web site visitors, but it is useful for search engines (like Google or Yahoo) to index your pages.
You should write the main keywords related to your page content comma separated, to help search engines to index your pages. You may also write a small description of your page. Many search engines will display this description in search results to users searching you keywords. The copyright and author info will usually not be displayed by web browsers, but you can fill them.
Note
All these information is always available to advanced web site visitors if they choose to look at your web page code.
