If I come into my site from a Google Image search, the window header always shows the caption from the first image I found even after clicking different photos in my gallery.

For example:
Go to Google Image search and use this as the search criteria:
Sheba site:ruama.com
Click the first image in the results.
My gallery opens up to that photo, but it has that Google frame at the top.
Click the "Remove Frame" link at the upper right.
Now I'm just in that gallery without the Google frame with the correct photo displayed.
The browser window says "A smiling dog!" which is the caption for that photo.
Now when you click on other photos, that "A smiling dog!" caption stays in the window header the whole time. It doesn't change after leaving that original photo.
If I click out of that gallery and jump back to a category page, then it does get reset to the regular window header.

I've reproduced this with IE8 and Chrome on Windows 7 and Windows Vista.

Anyone at Smugmug able to confirm this?

Andy · Jul-12-2010, 07:56 AM #3

Can't confirm, working perfectly for me in IE8 Win7 and FF Mac. The browser title is changing as I navigate through the photos.

I go from here
http://www.google.com/images?q=Sheba...N&hl=en&tab=wi

to
http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=...26tbs%3Disch:1

remove the frame and end up here

From the Google image search results, pick the first image result so that it takes you to the gallery page in Smugmug style instead of to an individual photo page.

For example, check the browser window title on all these links, they're all from the first photo instead of the photo being viewed (these are the URL's I get after taking Google image search to a gallery on my site and then changing to different photos (gallery in Smugmug style)).

http://www.ruama.com/Pets/Winter-050...57480117_emQAf
http://www.ruama.com/Pets/Winter-050...57481098_XhBZQ

And for that matter, when using smugmug in a normal way (not coming from Google image search) the browser window title it just the gallery description, not the photo caption.

Here are some sample from your site. All of these produce a window header indicating it's the south branch of the Moose River (the first photo), but it also shows that same heading for all the other links which are different photos

Cool, I got it now - checking.

mbrady · Aug-06-2010, 07:26 AM #6

Is this somewhere on the bug fix radar? Seems like a pretty big deal to me. I cringe when I check Statcounter and see all the views coming in from Google image search that have the browser window header.

mbrady · Aug-19-2010, 02:08 PM #7

Anything?

mbrady · Aug-29-2010, 10:17 AM #8

Hello? Is this thing on?

Still not fixed in the latest release...

docwalker · Aug-30-2010, 02:22 AM #9

Sorry, I thought Andy was tracking this one down. I am taking a look to make sure it is bugged.

docwalker · Aug-30-2010, 03:10 AM #10

It is bugged and on the list to be fixed. Sorry for the lack of updates.

mbrady · Apr-25-2011, 08:14 AM #11

8 months since the last word on this, still broken. Admittedly, this appears to be a low impact bug, but it's still goofy.

mbrady · Jun-18-2012, 07:34 AM #12

Any update on this? It's now been nearly 2 years...
