    I worked hard yesterday but was never able to retrieve the title of the Channel.  All I can get are the title of the items.

    Here is the link to the Feed I'm trying to parse.
    http://rss.cbc.ca/lineup/latest.xml

    I also need the information contained in the channel

    <rss version="2.0">
      <channel>
        <title>CBC | Ticker</title>
        <link>http://www.cbc.ca/</link>
        <description>CBC.ca News Ticker RSS</description>
        <language>en-ca</language>

        </item>

    I tried many ways to do it.  The last one was..

    $channel = $rss->getValuesByTagName('channel');
    echo $channel['title'];

      Many Apologies, it would appear sourceforge isn't notifying me of forums posts, anyways the answer is to simply use the query method.

      $channel_title = $rss->query('channel/title');

      Hope that helps.
