Customizing titles on pages and posts

Hey All,

I’ve looked for an answer to this, but couldn’t find one.

I want to be able to have simply the titles of any page/post on a site.

For posts, I know if I remove the <?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> » Blog Archive <?php } ?> piece of code from the header file it gets me most of the way there (well, the >> arrows are still there, how to get rid of those?)

However, removing this causes the title on my homepage to be blank. If i re-insert <?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?> the homepage title works fine, but the blog name is now in front of all post titles..which I do not want.

Is there a workaround for this?
