An echo in my script shows that the variable contains what you suggested. And I would think that would work, if it could get that value back to the page. However, the link shown on the page omits the "$". (Unless I turn off Relative Page Vars.) I have no idea why

I don't know how to globally unset() and restore. 

I'm guessing this would unset it: 

unset($GLOBALS['QualifyPatterns']);

I don't know how to restore it or whether I have to save a value first.
