Stupid Newreply Template Question

[bigsoccer tech]

In the template I see:

<td bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}"><normalfont><input type="text" class="bginput" name="title" value="$title" size="40" maxlength="85" tabindex="1"></normalfont> <smallfont>(Optional)</smallfont></td>

But the $title isn't populating the text field. Is the variable incorrect? What is the correct method for getting the thread title to automatically fill in the subject box of a reply (of course the user can change it...)

It's automatically filled in if you quote a post.

Yes, but that's not what I"m asking about.

To clarify,

is there a way to populate the title on a non quoted reply?

Not without hacking.

That's too bad. On vb2.0 (I believe) I was able to pull the title from the nav. But now that the nav has been pulled out to a separate template, that variable remains unavailable in the newrply template.
