dynamic

I have a web site where there are lots of dynamically (database driven) created pages. These pages are basically used to show uploaded images

The pages look a bit like this

URL: http://www.mywebsite.com/page-id/page-title/

H1: View from the sea

This is a big issue because I might have 10 other pages with the title: 'View from the sea'. I know the simple solution would be to make sure the pages are named differently but I have lots of users on the web site so it's not that simple.

What do you guys think to putting the page-id with the page-title in the H1 tag? So it might read 437 - View from the sea. I need to differentiate the h1 titles. I think using the page-id would help but if anyone has a better solution that would be great!

Thanks in advance
