Variable assigning ViewHelper

Assigns one template variable which will exist also after the ViewHelper is done rendering, i.e. adds template variables.

If you require a variable assignment which does not exist in the template after a piece of Fluid code is rendered, consider using f:alias instead.

Usages:

{f:variable(name: 'myvariable', value: 'some value')} <f:variable name="myvariable">some value</f:variable> {oldvariable -> f:format.htmlspecialchars() -> f:variable(name: 'newvariable')} <f:variable name="myvariable"><f:format.htmlspecialchars>{oldvariable}</f:format.htmlspecialchars></f:variable>
