Better template eval'ing

[filburt1]

PHP Code:

function evaltemplate($templatename, $storagevar)
// evals $templatename and stores the output in $storagevar
{
    $localcopy = gettemplate($templatename);
    eval("\$$storagevar = \"$localcopy\";");
} 


...and after that, I run:

PHP Code:

evaltemplate("templatename", "contentsvariable"); 


Finally, I put $contentsvariable at the top of the header. The template templatename exists. However nothing shows up in the header. Why?
