I know the node title, and I want to get node id from the node title, I tried 2 ways but not working properly

1) 

$title = arg(2); // get node title from the url 
$node = node_load(array('title' => $title));    
$nid = $node->nid;
print $nid;

errors are saying that Can only flip STRING and INTEGER values! in DrupalDefaultEntityController->load() , Trying to get property of non-object

2)

 $items = entity_load('node', FALSE, array(
            'type' => 'article',
            'title' => arg(2),
    ));

but then what I should do ?

    Node nid can be only numeric and unique value. $title it is not numeric value it is string that entered by user, $title has no any relations with $node->nid. You can have 10 different nodes with the same title. Also refer please to:
