From the docs:
You can use the "SET" directive to define a variable that exists only in the page.

For example:

  [{SET  foo='bar'}]

creates a variable called "foo", which has the value of "bar". You can access this value anywhere on your page by using the shorthand "[{$foo}]".

Where are these values stored?  I'm hoping in a session variable.

Back story. A while ago I built a plugin to let me put Judoscript into a page. This gave me the ability to go get page data from other places (like make a call to get a stock price or weather data) . So I was able to scrape data. I'd like to be able to do a book lookup by ISBN number and get the results back that I can parse (see this as an example http://www.isbnsearch.org/isbn/9781465043221)

I'd like to be able to do a [{SET ISBN=9781465043221] and then use [{INSERTPAGE BookInfo}] the BookInfo is the page that has the Judoscript on it, it would do the call, format the information. But I need to have access to the variables that are SET.

Thanks!
Foster

(Plan B would be to write a plugin that takes the ISBN number and then sets variables like Title, Author, Pages, etc and let the page deal with it that way. )
