Ok, I've got a question for the technical people. I want to use the value from a php variable as a parameter value in an MT tag. For example, I want to set the categories attribute of a MTEntries tag from a php variable:
MTEntries lastn='2' category='$thiscat'
However, when I try that, I get an error when rebuilding that says No such category 'thiscat'
I've tried various different options here. If I make it look like this:
MTEntries lastn='2' category=\"$thiscat\"
it lets me compile, but it ignores the category (it selects all posts in the mtentries section.
So, any ideas how/if this can be done?

Sorry.
