get_the_title_rss()WP 2.0.0

Gets the post title. Used when displaying the title in the RSS feed. Used in The Loop.

The function is used when creating the XML document for the RSS feed. It is needed so that plugins can change the post title in the RSS feed via the filter the_title_rss.

Use the_title_rss(), to display the title on the screen, rather than getting a string for further processing.
