Display the archive title where? In the meta-title or the page content area?

Page content area. I’m actually trying to include it in the header of my page when people go into the monthly archive. So I just want it to say the title of that archive (march 2010 or what ever).

I use this to get the titles of my regular posts to display in my singles page header.. is it similar to do it for the archives?
<?php the_title(); ?>
No – you need to use something like:
<?php $post = $posts[0]; // Hack. Set $post so that the_date() works. ?>
<h2 class="pagetitle">Archive for <?php the_time('F jS, Y'); ?></h2>
<?php /* If this is a monthly archive */ } elseif (is_month()) { ?>
<h2 class="pagetitle">Archive for <?php the_time('F, Y'); ?></h2>
<?php /* If this is a yearly archive */ } elseif (is_year()) { ?>
<h2 class="pagetitle">Archive for <?php the_time('Y'); ?></h2>
which is taken straight from the archive.php template in the default theme.

This actually does the trick but I want it displayed as text only, not a link. Also, for some reason it has a bullet point in front of it. Can anyone help me out?
<?php wp_get_archives( $args ); ?>
I just need the archive title by month and year (ex. march 2010) to appear once you goto that specific archive from a drop down menu.
