    I want to show current category title

    I found this page
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/single_cat_title

    <p><?php single_cat_title('Currently browsing '); ?>.</p>

    Currently browsing WordPress.

    I try this

    if(is_category()){
    $page_title = __("Category Archives :",'obandes');
	$page_title = $page_title.single_cat_title('', false);
//ok echo Category Archives : WordPress
	$page_title = single_cat_title($page_title, false);
//bad echo  WordPress

}

printf('<div class="h1" id="archives-title">%s</div>',esc_html($page_title));

    I am search other example.

    find twentyten category.php

    <h1 class="page-title"><?php
	printf( __( 'Category Archives: %s', 'twentyten' ), '<span>' . single_cat_title( '', false ) . '</span>' );
?></h1>

    Is this only my ploblem?

    why I have not good result?

    Sorry alchymyth

    function single_cat_title have 2 parameter.
    It is prefix and display parameter.

    the prefix parameter is not work.

    Can my explanation be understood?

    this is either done on purpose, but undocumented, in the core files (/wp-includes/general-template.php), or an error.

    the resp code snippet is here:

    750      if ( $display )
 751          echo $prefix . $term_name;
 752      else
 753          return $term_name;
 754  }

    so – with the display parameter ‘false’ to return a string, the prefix is ommitted.

    however, when you know this, you can simply program what you want, as you are working with strings anyway.
