How do I use conditional in the $header to show page title next to logo?

Something simple like:

<h1>&nbsp;</h1>
<script type="text/javascript">document.getElementsByTagName('h1')[0].innerHTML = document.title;</script>

seems to work quite well for me.

Hi SirAdrian,

I'm not sure I understand why that would be useless for SEO. Is it because there is actually nothing between the H1 tags? In that case, you're right. For me it's not strictly SEO, but it is mostly SEO. I definitely want the value of using header tags throughout my site and want the page title to be H1. But I also want to reiterate that the document title has the $vboptions[bbtitle] as well as the page title, which I feel is redundant and too lengthy for my purposes of a H1 page title.

I appreciate your input though and I wouldn't doubt your suggestion could be just the solution someone else is looking for at some time. My hope is that this discussion will become one of the stopping points for many future searches for the issues we are bringing up. Good stuff here.
