Checking Member Group?

[Jibba Jabbas]

Basically in the navigation bar i would like a "staff" button which leads to a staff area but obviously i only want staff to see this. So what would the if statement look like? I've looked through some of the php files and i can't find anything.

Anybody know the variable for member group or do i have to pull it out the database myself and make a variable from it

Also my navigation bar is edited in the "all style options" and can't be done through the navigation template (that's the way the skins made...)

Thanks in advance!
