Ok
I have field 'Something' within the 'forum' table, which I want associated with the header template for use within the relevant forum (and which can be changed depending on the forum).
I want to be able to set this within the header template, so I'm assuming $forum[Something] won't work since that only works for one of the two (forumdisplay & showthread - can't remember offhand which uses $forum and which uses $foruminfo!

).
I figure I will just need to have it run through a template, but am at a loss of how to do it... mental blank, y'see
Thanks for the response!
