VB If Conditional not working in AD code?

Hi All,

I'm trying to use the following conditional to stop an advertisement from showing in a specific forum:

<vb:if condition="$forumid != 18">
ad code here
</vb:if>

It doesn't break the forum or anything, but the ad still shows in that forum. Anything glaringly wrong with the code?

EDIT: To be more clear this is using the built in VB 4 ad code manager and trying to place it below the navbar. I am also checking one of their boxes (to not show it to a certain usergroup).

Try

Code:

<vb:if condition="$forumid != '18'">

with single quotes around the number.

And shouldn't that be this?

Code:

$foruminfo['forumid']

Actually, we can't guess at the variable name since we don't know what template it is. You need to use a variable that is registered for use in that template. Or, try $GLOBALS['forumid']

I stand corrected.

Thanks, the $GLOBALS bit did exactly what I was trying to do.
