What exactly is this:
<?php
$_GET['title'];
$_title['home.txt'];
?>
supposed to do?

$_GET['title'] is not a command but can be used in the following way:
suppose your page is called index.php. If you browse to http://domain.tld/index.php?title=plaap
then your script can read the data that was sent in the query-string by reading from the $_GET array. In this case
echo $_GET['title'];
would produce: plaap

$_title['home.txt'] would attempt to read from the array $_title the value at the index 'home.txt', but the value is not assigned to any variable.

The reason why these lines do not produce an error is that the syntax itself is not incorrect. PHP just evaluates the expressions and gets the resulting values (twice an empty string presumably).
