 * I’m very new to WP
 * I try to define some variables on the header for my nav bar (which is both in
   header and footer)
 * like for example:
 *     ```
       // I declare le navigation values to be used on the 2 nav bars
       $navAboutMe= get_page_link('19');
       ```
   
 * but when I want to access $navAboutMe inside the footer.php my var is empty.
 * why does those vars are reseted? and where? and do you have an idea on how I 
   can get through it
 * thanx you in advance
 * Steffy
