Hello,
Add the php variable into <?php .. ?>, with "echo".
Try this:

Code: Select all

$sql=mysqli_query($conn,"SELECT * FROM `user` WHERE id='" . $id . "' LIMIT 1");
$title ='Defaul Title';
if(mysqli_num_rows($sql)>0){
  while($row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($sql)) $title = $row['name'];
}
?>
<button onclick="myFunction()">Try it</button>
<p id="demo"></p>

<title>Profile View <?php echo $title; ?></title>
