Running drupal version 6.16. For some unknown reason all my page titles say 'My title'. I've not made any customizations to the Garland theme I am using. I've even installed the Page Title module to see if I could get control of page titles, to no avail. I've got to fix this for SEO. Anybody have any idea what's going on here and how to fix it? Thanks in advance!

So, before you added the "Page Title" module, every page had a "My Title" title attribute? Are you working off-line or on a live site? What non-core modules have you added? What text do you have entered under "Site Information > Name" (a common default page title being «node title»|«site-information.name» Have you modified your page.tpl.php or template.php files?
If not, and if you can work on an off-line site, I'd first remove any modules I've added until I got the default page title.
Re. odd
yes, before I added the Page Title module, every p[age had the 'My title' attribute. on a live site. ubercart and several other modules. I have the website name entered in the Site information > name field. I've not touched the theme .php files.
What I'd do
What I'd do, as this isn't default behavior, but I'd only do so to a non-live mirror of the site
1) Switch theme to another core theme to see if it persists. If not,
2) disable every non-core module to see if issue persists. I doubt it would drill all the way down. If not,
3) Use "devel" module to see the php path for potential overrides.
