where did you setup this "varible"

hi,

in file showthread.php

If I am understanding your question correctly, if the file containing the variable is run, it should recognize it automatically.

ex: if you declare $hello = 'hello'; in showthread.php

then putting $hello in a template will show $hello if the current file is showthread.php (or it is included).

ok, then if you set $var in showthreadm then you can use it in a showthread template, infact any template that comes after the varible is defined.
