Navbar - Total Online

[xXLeighXx2008]

I have some code in my navbar which shows the number of online users

ONLINE ( xx )

Its not displaying on all pages, it will show as

ONLINE ( )

The code I am using is $totalonline

Which code do I use to make it show on all pages? I tried $GLOBAL$totalonline

$totalonline is only defined in certain places. You will need to create a plug-in that replicates how VB fills that variable and fill another variable with the data if you want it to show on every page.

As I've never created a plugin in my life, can anyone give me a plugin code to use that will acheive this?
