CakePHP - How do i set the page title to an item name?

Question

OK, so I\'m trying to teach myself the CakePHP framework, and I\'m trying to knock up a simple demo app for myself.

I have the controllers, views and models all set

As of CakePHP 1.3, setting page title has been changed.

$this->pageTitle = "Title"; //deprecated

$this->set("title_for_layout",Inflector::humanize($this->name)); // new way of setting title
