Gary,

You can get the name of parent node using the inline xslt syntax
```
<umbraco:Item runat="server" field="parentID" xslt="umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById({0})/@nodeName" />
```
(Code is untested, so may need a tweak)

Cheers,

/Dirk

Dirk,

I need to put this in a plain HTML template in Umbraco. I did that and it doesn't display anything.

Dirk,

I need to put this in a plain ole HTML template in Umbraco. I did that and it doesn't display anything. No errors either.

<span><umbraco:Item runat="server" field="parentID" xslt="umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById({1052})/@nodeName" /> </span>

None of the runat = "server" syntax works in my templates. Is there something I need to add to my pages to use this?

Thanks,

GaryB

Dirk solution is correct. Please note {0} instead of {1052}
```
<umbraco:Item ID="Item1" runat="server" field="parentID" xslt="umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById({0})/@nodeName" ></umbraco:Item> 
```
