Was wondering how you can specify the Title tag for the main page. I tried it by using category 0, but this didn't do it. Am further pretty clueless....
I just tested the way Paul suggested and it works better than my way.
One observation though: I am using the description of the link as my META description, but I noticed it's using the HTML code for certain characters rather than the actual character, like & #39; instead of a single quote. Is there a way for it to display the character rather than that code?

<IF {TID} contains main.tpl> might do it... not sure if that'll work in the wrapper.

Here's how I've been doing it:
<title>{LANG_NAVORIGIN}
<IF {AREA} contains Main>
My custom main title here
<OTHERWISE>
{AREA}
</IF></title>
I'll have to try the way Paul suggested, because I'd like to change the META keywords and description for my link details pages.

For an example, go to http://www.gamelinks.com/link.php?action=detail&id=946 and view source and look at the META description.
Thanks,

Again, great advice!
Sorry Adam, don't know a solution.
Something I found usefull is to display the above + current category as title.
<title> {CATPARENTNAME} {AREA}</title>
