 * I’m wanting (for complicated reasons) to dynamically change an individual Post/
   Page title (for front-end browser display purposes only, not in DB).
 * However, for reasons, I need to do this on the fly within the actual post’s content
   using PHP-Exec plugin (allowing me to do PHP in the post) and possibly, WP hooks/
   actions etc.
 * I have 1 WP page, that using htaccess and Exec-PHP will act as a template for
   many different article pages, and thus when that page is called (from one of 
   the many different URLs that will call it), the page will access the DB, and 
   retrieve an article title, and article body based on the calling URL.
 * The resulting outputted page will have that article body in it – achievable as
   Exec-PHP is being using in the Post body to do all this.
 * However I also need to also change the Post title (that appears in the browser
   top, and in the templates <h1> tags etc) to reflect the article title from the
   DB. This is the problem, I can’t work out how to change the page title using 
   exec-php in the page content.
 * Is there anyway I could alter these titles on the run, using WP hooks/actions
   or whatever?
 * Is this even possible? If so, how? 🙂
 * Hoping this makes sense.
 * Thx
