We could actually streamline this a bit:

///
<title><%=(condition) ? "Title A" : "Title B" %></title>
///

That does not work from CodeBehind file (aspx.cs)! Is there an
object/property that I can change to change title?

Thanks

Ok, what you can do is have a protected string as a member var. of the
code-behind.
protected string sTitle = "";

In Page_Load or wherever you want, throw the logic in it to determine the
value of your title string.
if(Condition)
{
sTitle = "Title A";
}
else
{
sTitle = "Title B";
}

In the front-end .aspx page:
<title><%=sTitle%></title>

In the html file add:

<title id="myTitle" runat="server" />

In the code behind add a field:

protected System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl myTitle;

In page_load add:

myTitle.InnerText = "Hello World";

You can adapt it however you wish from there.

VS2003 mangles the HTML title element when moving between the designer and
code behind so all of those other comments have been proven risky and a PITA
to use. Thus, the better strategy is to use a Literal control in the <head>
element

// .aspx
<head><asp:Literal id="pageTitle" /></head>

// .cs
pageTitle.Text = "Home Page";
