Every story is in it's own .xhtml file rather than creating the one big file that everyone complains about.

When I create a new .xhtml file and I look at the code (before sticking anything in the file), this is what I see:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
  <title></title>
</head>

<body>
  <p>&nbsp;</p>
</body>
</html>
Everything I type ends up between the <body> tags. What (if anything) goes between the <title> tags? Do they do anything?

If I put the name of the short story (or chapter or whatever) between the tags, do they do anything? Will it change the title bar of the eReader to reflect the name of the current short shory or chapter?

What's the story?
Maybe
Not all readers do anything with these.
Some smaller screens have char count limits. Stay Terse
I think they don't cause problems if they exist.
