Hello Carsten, Carsten Dominik carsten.domi...@gmail.com writes: Unfortunately I do not know about a variable that does hold the title of a page in w3. In w3m there is w3m-current-title. In w3, all I was able to find is the URL via (org-view-url t) If anyone knows the magic incantation to extract the page title in a w3 buffer, I'd be happy to make it the default for the link description. The way this is implemented in emacspeak and in bmk-mgr is to use the buffer-name. As far as I know that is the only way to get the current title from w3. IIRC, I implemented this in emacspeak and I know I did it in bmk-mgr. I assume that if Dr. Raman signed off it can't be too wrong. Thanks for your help, rdc -- Robert D.

Sorry I wasn't clear in my needs and use. I am curious as to why you are using w3, since, from what I have read, emacspeak supports w3m as well: That is true. w3 is so slow and feature incomplete. Slow, yes. Feature incomplete, no. There are several things w3 can do that w3m cannot. Table navigation, support for aural css, fontification of all tags (pre, code, and the like immediately come to mind), different attributes for h[1-6] tags, I am aware of nothing w3m can do that w3 cannot. Also, since w3 is pure lisp it can be extended in ways that w3m cannot. rdc -- Robert D.

Carsten Dominik carsten.domi...@gmail.com writes: I have just tried a few pages including orgmode.org, and the buffer name is Untitled. Am I using an old version of w3, or if orgmode.org broken in this way? Not sure. If I open orgmode.org and then eval the expression (buffer-name) it returns the name of the buffer, which w3 gets from the title tag. Considering the speed of w3 releases (or lack thereof) I doubt you have a different version from what I have here.

[Orgmode] generating titles in remember templates from w3 buffers [was:Re: feature request]
As I mentioned below, using the annotation expansion in the template does not work when using w3. I did see the error in my template and have fixed it (unnecessary brackets). I am wondering if there is some other way to get the title or if it can be added as a feature. I've changed the post below to reflect the change in my template and what it returns. Thanks in advance for any help, rdc Robert D. Crawford rd...@comcast.net writes: Matthew Lundin m...@imapmail.org writes: I've been trying to make an org-remember template that will grab the title of the webpage I want to create a link to. This seems to not be possible, although I could very well be wrong. I was curious as to whether a new keyword could be created for w3 and w3m links. Seems that :title would be very useful. When I use w3m, the annotation substitution (%a) in the remember template does the trick. It grabs the url and title of the current page (using org-store-link). Thanks. This does work for w3m but using w3 it returns this: * [[http://www.gnu.org]] :gnu: from this template: '((?b * %a %^g %! ~/bookmarks.org bottom) Later today, if I get the chance, I'll explore the solution proposed by Sebastian Rose.

I was curious as to whether a new keyword could be created for w3 and w3m links. Seems that :title would be very useful. I am pretty sure I could code this myself... doesn't seem to be terribly difficult.
