Hi all,

I never thought I'd be asking for help with something which should be so simple but here's my problem.

I run XPlode which calls xplode.xml, this inturn loads the include-StdConfig.xml and Include-Items.xml

In the 'include-StdConfig.xml' I have changed the display.title tag as follows

<display.title>Software Installation</display.title>
 	 <display.complete>completed</display.complete>

But, when XPlode is launched, the title remains XPlode Installation

Here's a log, which to my understanding says it uses the title of 'Software Installation'

This has me really confused, and again... I appreciate all help I receive.

So quickly I discovered the answer, I should have checked this first before my initial post.

In the Selection directory there is a file called Title.html, I changed the title here using a html editor and it was reflected during test run to what I was trying to achieve in the above post.

So now I have a new question... if the <Display.Title> tag does not affect this title, then which title exactly does it affect?

Edit:

Errr...

I beleive the answer was there all along

<!-- strings for the original display plugin -->
 	 <display.title>Software Installation</display.title>
 	 <display.complete>completed</display.complete>

Obviously these tags are only used with the original display plugin

Nice to see someone taking the initiative and doing a bit of testing on their own.
