32,861 PointsAs Kevin mentioned, it is the_title() that you were looking for. It is the first function on the page I linked to you.

935 PointsI tried the_title and it still didn't work. Don't recall that being in this lesson. Part of the problem with these quizzes is the difficulty in choosing the right syntax. Sometimes the author of the quiz puts a semicolon there for you and on the next question if you add a semicolon it is deemed incorrect.
I realize syntax is extremely important in coding, but syntax in relation to the context of how the question is being asked is very tricky. I spend most of the time trying to enter the correct version of the right answer.
