I'd look at it differently:

<html>
<head>

<title><?php echo $page_title='Su nny Day !'; ?></title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
// use saved $page_title
echo 'The title of this page is (', $page_title, ')';
?>
</body>
</html>

Re: Retrieve <TITLE&gt ; in php code ?

Thank you for this tip, but for the use that I want, it's necessary to
retrieve the real TITLE... No way, is it your last word ? No function
like get_title, or get_header_keyw ord("TITLE") or anything ?

Only way is to write my own function, sure ?

Try this:

//Read the HTML file into an array:
$HTML_file = file ('http://www.example.com/');

//Convert this to a string separated by zero length strings:
$HTML_string = implode('', $HTML_file);

// then use a regexp to find what lies between the title tags:
eregi("<title>( .*)</title>", $HTML_string, $my_temp);

// $my_temp is now an array of matched patterns from the regexp:
// the first (and only, in this case) parenthesised pattern is at array
offset 1,
// which is where we will find our title:
$HTML_title = trim($my_temp[1]);

Well, there might be a way. Somehow you have to get the HTML output in
your program. Have a look at the output control functions at
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.outcontrol.php.

The idea is to catch the output in a buffer, search the buffer for the
title and replace a placeholder in the HTML otput with the title. Have a
look at the following code:

<?php ob_start(); // start output buffering ?>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Yeah, it works</title>
</head>
<body>
The title of this page is: {TITLE}
</body>
</html>
<?php
// get the content of the buffer and clear the buffer
$content = ob_get_clean();
// find title
if (preg_match("~< title>(.*)</title>~iU", $content, $match)) {
// replace the placeholder {TITLE} with the real title
$content = preg_replace("~ (\{TITLE\})~", $match[1], $content);
}
// output the result
echo $content;
?>

It worked for me. If you're using a PHP version < 4.3.0 you won't have
the function ob_get_clean(). This function can be replaced by two other
functions. Check the documentation if you need to.

I noticed that Message-ID:

How is the page generated?
