history.pushstate not updating title

ajax, browser-history, javascript

Solution

The `title` parameter is not the window title. It may be used as a title of the state but some browsers like Chrome simply ignore it.

Problem

I am using AJAX to load main content of the page. Using `history.pushstate(Object:State, String:Title, String:URL)` - I am able to update the URL in the address bar and navigate back in the history. However the `title` parameter appears to have no effect. Neither does the window title change nor the title of the entries in the 'history list' (perhaps both of them are same anyway). What am I doing wrong? Update: `title` param is simply ignored in chrome. http://lists.whatwg.org/pipermail/whatwg-whatwg.org/2010-June/026827.html
