Showing custom text on the taskbar browser tab

Question

For example suppose you have 3 notifications in Facebook.

When you open the website, you see a browser tab (?) on the taskbar showing '(3) Your name' in Chrome or '(3)Facebook- Mozilla...' in Firefox.

For a webpage, the title value (plus browser dependent text) is shown as text in the browser tab and on the taskbar.

How can I add the number of notifications (i.e. 3 here) there? Is it done with HTML, JavaScript or what?

Answer 1

The contents of the title could either be set by the default HTML originating from the server-side in the <title></title> element, or it could be set using the document.title property in Javascript.
