Sorry if I'm not being clear...

Say for instance I have a layout like this :

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
<head>
<title><?= $title_for_layout?></title>
</head>
<body>

<?= $content_for_layout ?>

<?= $sidebar ?>

</body>
</html>

...where $sidebar needs to have dynamic content.
It should also be global...visible on all pages of a specific layout.
How will I go about this?

I'm not sure if elements are only for static content.
