[Mediawiki-l] accessing title of page

[Alistair Johnson]

A (probably quite simple) question, how can I get the value of a page title
into a variable?  We've quite a few very long page titles in our wiki & i
want to decrease the font size displayed on screen once the title is (say)
greater than 30 characters.

I can't appear to go $value = $this->text('title'); as that just outputs the
page title to the screen.  How then can I determine the title?  Once I have
the title in a var I'll strlen it & adjust the formatting accordingly.

Thanks,

al.
