$timenow in header?

[QuickVirus]

Hello, I'm currently working on a new skin for my forum, and I was wondering something. In my header section (the one with the logo, before the forumlist and the welcome message), I tried to put the date with $timenow, wich is the normal variable for this right? But it don't work, so I suppose I need to configure this variable to work in the header, but how?

Thanks for any tips,
Hawke

Internally within vB its 'TIMENOW' (no $, capitals) - that may work - not sure how the template parser would handle it. If not then you could assign it to a variable in the php header include template and then use that variable.
