Hi Everyone,

I have a toolbar that i use to as an advertising template, every section on the site has its own ad, so every ad has zone i, i use the template to tell the toolbar in which section i am and it will get the ads for me, i have a database that has all the zone ids in it, i want the toolbar somehow to query the database and get the zone id depned on the section, so I was thinking of writing a query using php to query this db. how can do that?!

Yes. Use the 'wrap_operator' it will work perfectly for your needs.

and beware the various caches so you have your toolbar recalculated for each different sections instead of reusing one from a previously cached one.
