Answer 1

If the code above is that of your view.html.php file then you can pass the variable through to your template file by using a line like so:

$this->assignRef( 'hidemainmenu', $hidemainmenu);

Then in your tmpl/default.php file for example you can access this variable like so:

$this->hidemainmenu
