I have this code on one of my pages...

--snip--

[value name="name_letter" set="T"]<br>

[loop search="fi=userdb
ra=yes"]
[loop-code]:
[if explicit]
[condition]
  $last_name = '[loop-data userdb last_name]';
  $name_letter = '[value name_letter]';
  return 1 if $last_name =~ /^$name_letter/;
  return 0;
[/condition]
Last Name Matches First Letter "[value name_letter]"
[else]
nope...
[/else][/if]<br>

[/loop]

--/snip--

It does not work.  I would really like for it to work ;)  When I replaced
the user of $name_letter / [value name_letter] the if works just fine (and
even produces the output I want!)  Once I make the letter I'm looking for
based on a value, nothing matches.  Doesn't seem to make any errors
either.

Anyone have a clue for me?
