   I have a custom built theme options panel that sets a selected category as "Featured" and displays it on the home page.

   So it looks like this, and this works -

   <?php $featured_query = new WP_Query('showposts='.$fnumber.'&cat='.$featured); ?>

   Now, I'm trying to pass the same value to the archive.php page which will let me show a custom archive page for the "Featured" category.

   So, I did this -

   <?php if (is_category('$featured') ) { ?>

   But it does not work.

   I even tried

   <?php if (is_category(.$featured.) ) { ?>

   and many other variations.

   Any help would be appreciated.
