title: Can I declare local/temp variables within a jQuery template?
body: <p>Is it possible to declare new variables within the jQuery template syntax? I'm hoping to achieve the equivalent of this (which does not work):</p>
  
  <pre><code>{{var test = "test"}}
  
  &lt;div&gt;
      ${test}
  &lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
