searchtitle

When your DITA topic is transformed to XHTML, the <searchtitle> element is used to create a title element at the top of the resulting HTML file. This title is normally used in search result summaries by some search engines, such as that in Eclipse (http://eclipse.org); if not set, the XHTML's title element defaults to the source topic's title content (which may not be as well optimized for search summaries)

Example

<task id="progexample">
 <title>Programming Example</title>
  <titlealts><searchtitle>Example of Required Programming</searchtitle></titlealts>
 <taskbody> . . . </taskbody>
</task>
