[geeklog-users] Another formatting question. . .php variables

[TechFan]

Thanks.  I tried added a function in lib-custom.php with just the global 
line. . .and then running that function in header.thtml but it still 
wouldn't work. . .I wasn't sure what the scope rules are with PHP, so I 
ended up just putting the global line directly in header.thtml. . .maybe 
not ideal though.

Thanks again.
