@beernuts2: sounds like you want a plugin which fires on OnDocFormSave.

That might look something like this - not tested but you get the idea:

<?php
// limit this to a specific template or it will run on every resource
$templateId = 7; 

if ($resource->get('template) === $templateId) {
    $tv1 = $resource->getTVValue('TV1 Name');
    $tv2 = $resource->getTVValue('TV2 Name');
    $tv3 = $resource->getTVValue('TV3 Name');

    $pagetitle = "$tv1 $tv2 $tv3";
    $resource->set('pagetitle', $pagetitle);
    $resource->save();
}

For dynamic HTML title and description ( <title>xyz</title> and <meta name="description" content="12345" /> ) I did the following:

In my template:
```
<title>[[*longtitle]]</title>
<meta name="description" content="[[*description]]">
```
In the Resource's Document tab:
Long Title: [[!setPageTitle]]
Description: [[!setPageDesc]]

I then have two snippets called setPageTitle and setPageDesc that generate the title and description from information in the database row for the current item.
