Variables in grid template preventing page content loading

[udderx]

Hi there,

When I include a custom variable in a CMS grid template (specifically vbcms_grid_10), the variable content outputs successfully, however it seems to prevent the page content from loading.

Instead of widgets and article previews, I get $Column[1], $Column[2], etc?

If someone could steer me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.

Details are as follows:

I have an external file called phpinclude.php that contains:

PHP Code:

<?php echo 'test output'; ?>

I have created a plugin and preregistered the variable for display in the appropriate template using the hook 'global_bootstrap_init_start'.

The plugin code itself:

PHP Code:

ob_start();
  include('V2_INCLUDES/phpinclude.php');
  $phpincludetest = ob_get_contents();
  ob_end_clean();

vB_Template::preRegister('vbcms_grid_10',array('phpincludetest' => $phpincludetest)); 


In vbcms_grid_10, I have included {vb:raw phpincludetest}, positioned where I would like the variable content to show (and it does), but breaks the loading of the page content as indicaated in the attachment.

Any ideas? Many Thanks.
