 * Hello all,
 * I’m trying to use a GET variable and dynamically include it into a post. I have
   the PHP_EXEC plugin installed so I can run php code in my post. However, I put
   the GET code in the header and it won’t include in the post. The code is as follows:
 * In the header.php:
 *     ```
       <?
       $tid = $_GET['tid'];
       if ($tid == "") {
       	$tid = 'none';
       }
       ```
   
 * and in the post:
 * `<?php echo $tid ?>`
 * Any ideas?

 * In your header:
 *     ```
       global $tid;
       $tid = $_GET['tid'];
       ```
   
 * In the post:
 * `<?php global $tid; echo $tid; ?>`
