Try..
http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules--taxonomy--taxonomy.module/function/taxonomy_term_load/7
$term = taxonomy_term_load(arg(2)); $title = $term->name; arg(2) should return the tid of the taxonomy page (taxonomy/term/tid).
- Thanks for the quick reply. I tried your method, but I'm getting this error

I figured it out, heres what I did:
<?php $termid = arg(2); $term = taxonomy_term_load($termid); $title = $term->name; ?> Thank you @Kevin for your help.
- +1 for saving taxonomy-term-id is separate variable. It follows KISS principle(atleast from my point-of-view).Bhavik Shah– Bhavik Shah2013-12-30 12:50:30 +00:00Commented Dec 30, 2013 at 12:50

Instead of using taxonomy_term_load() which is not working well every time, you can call:
function get_tag_name($tid) { $query = db_select('taxonomy_term_data', 't'); $query ->condition('t.tid', $tid, '=') ->fields('t', array('tid', 'name')); $result = $query->execute(); foreach ($result as $row) { return $row->name; } }
