Passing variables to vBulletin on non-vB pages

Is it possible to set a variable on a non-vB page, then pass it to vB so it can be used in a template? e.g.

PHP Code:


		
			
$headline = "Welcome to our site!"
eval('$vbheader = "' . fetch_template('header') . '";');
echo $vbheader;

And somehow pass $headline to the 'header' template, so it can display "Welcome to our site!"?

It looks like that will let me include an entire file, but I don't see how it lets me include a single variable.

Another issue is that the $headline variable can change multiple times within the script:

PHP Code:


		
			
switch ($action) {

case add:

    $headline = "Add Item";

    break;

case delete:

    $headline = "Delete Item";

    break;

case edit:

    $headline = "Edit Item";

    break;

}

Would the above be possible with plugins?

I though you maybe wanted to include a file for your "headline". If all you wanted to do was assign a few variables based on conditions, yes, that could be done using plugins. Hell, it could probably be done using templates only.
