I have always displayed a channel entry's title like so:
{exp:channel:entries channel="news"}{embed="partials/.header" page_title="{title}"}{/exp:channel:entries}
Body
{embed="partials/.footer"}
What is the best way of including the entry's title in the header partial template of the html?
// .header
<head>
<title>{embed:page_title}</title>
</head>
