Re: [Mediawiki-l] Pass PHP variables into Parser

Hi Ben,

I am wondering if it is possible to pass PHP variables into the mediawiki extension Parser.

I'm not quite sure what this means, but I can tell you that since a MediaWiki parser extension is a piece of PHP code, it can take input from any number of sources.

I would like to somehow use a couple variables from a MySQL table

Well, assuming that by "variables" you mean "data", yes - a parser extension _can_ use data from the MySQL database.
