I think PTV (PageTextVariables) will do what you want.
Put this in Templates/Navbox:
===(snip)===
Hi, my name is {$:MyName} and I live at {$:Address} but you can call me
{$:Title}.
===(snip)===
Then in page Mygroup.Mypage where you want to see that displayed you put
this:
===(snip)===
(:MyName:John Smith:)
(:Title:Sam:)
(:Address:132 Main St:)
(:include Templates/Navbox:)
===(snip)===
Now when you view Mygroup.Mypage you will see
===(snip)===
Hi, my name is John Smith and I live at 132 Main St but you can call me Sam.
===(snip)===
Is that what you were wanting? Or were you wanting the variable to be set
in the Nav page?
