Scripts are compiled into the same package as the global.asa, which is why
you can share variables in this way.

This should have been an error. Remember to configure "PerlSetVar UseStrict 1",
which should have reported this as an error if configured. The reason
is that %Application is not defined, which $Application{'title'} would
reference. Rather $Application should be defined, so you could do
$Application->{title} = "This is my 1st...";
This should work. But generally, unless you have a very good reason
for using $Application, don't! It can be a big performance drag
on a site if not used carefully. Things in $Application can often
by defined as globals in Script_OnStart, or in the global.asa file
as above like $Var.
# global.asa
use vars qw( %Strings ); # declare globals
%Strings = (
'error' => 'This is an error',
'greeting' => 'This is a greeting.'
);
# then in ASP script
<%= $Strings{'error'} %>

What's the error page?

If you want to init $title on a per script request, then
you probably want to set it to something either in your script like
<% $title = "something"; %>
or in global.asa Script_OnStart
sub Script_OnStart {
$title = "title here";
}

Not in Application_OnStart though. Application_OnStart gets fired
only when your web site is starting up when the first user visits
it, and is thus not very useful.
