Thanks, it works. I do have some suggestions for the title.

1. Unfortunately, I cannot use the ftoc:t option. For reasons I won't
go into here, I cannot have the table of contents displayed on one
side of the page. If I use ftoc:t, then the table of contents will
always be displayed at the top which is not what I need.

What I need is for the title to be independent of the table of contents.

2. I like the idea of having the title always visible in
info-view-mode. However, others may not. Is it possible to add a title
display option to the code? That way the user could decide which
option to use. Maybe something like this:

To always display the title in info-view-mode, add the following to
the org file:

#+INFOJS_OPT: infotitledisplay:always

To never display the title in info-view-mode, add the following to the org file:

#+INFOJS_OPT: infotitledisplay:never

To only display the title above the table of contents in
info-view-mode, add the following to the org file:

#+INFOJS_OPT: infotitledisplay:top

I think the default should be either "infotitledisplay:always" or
"infotitledisplay:top" with my preference being
"infotitledisplay:always". In plain-view-mode it makes sense to me to
have the title at the top, I don't see any need to have title display
options for this mode.

Unfortunately, my knowledge of Javascript is very limited, so I'm not
able to write the code for these options at this time. But I'd be
happy to test any changes you make.
