Hello Shane,
Not through HTML.
There is a way, but it would require the compiler and how to get at
the vars and writing Mivascript and an understanding of MM logic, but
that is also for the coders list.
Actually there is another way, but you'll need to get OpenUI and
understand the Open Token possibilities. This is what the example you
provided, %ship_fname% is all about. Stock MM doesn't have way to
display the vars like OpenUI can.
Lastly, they may be another way, but I don't remember. You may be able
to get Dynamic Templates from MivaCentral. If it's still supported,
you'll get a replacement MMUI module and the ability to use templates
to customize many of your MM pages. I think there was also the
capability of tokens....but please don't quote me.
FWIW,
Scott
