Help with variables

[mtheory]

I am trying to get the $welcometext variable to show up in the header template, i need to know what php code i need to add to make it show up...?

what you can do is put $welcometext=whatever in the phpinclude template, then add $welcometext in the header template

[mtheory]

yeah, but its the text that says Welcome back, Username or, unregister when they arent logged in.

so that wouldn't work.
