Using smarty variable within {php} tags

Very simple question, is it possible to use a smarty var inside the {php}{/php} tags. I know it's deprecated, pointless, not recommended, etc., but please, I am looking for a simple patch !

Something like

{php} 

 $result = mysql_query("SELECT value FROM table WHERE fieldid = 9 AND relid = {MYSMARTYVAR}");

{/php}

Thank you!

Update: I`ve tried the following methods.

1-$var = $this->get_template_vars('smarty_var');
2-$var = $smarty->getTemplateVars('smarty_var');
3-$var = $this->_tpl_vars['smarty_var'];

All give me Fatal errors, $this when not in object context etc. I`m in the WHMCS environment, if this explains why perhaps certain things are blocked or disabled?

Update 2; found a solution more simple than it seemed, I feel silly: $var= "{$mysmartyvar}";

Thanks everyone!

This works for me:

{php}
$variable= $GLOBALS['smarty']->getTemplateVars('variable');
{/php}

Try using "global"

{php}
global $smarty_object;
$var = $smarty_object->get_template_vars('whatever');
{/php}

Use $this->get_template_vars('smarty_var') to get a Smarty variable.

 $result = mysql_query("SELECT value FROM table WHERE fieldid = '9' AND relid = '" . $this->get_template_vars('smarty_var') . "'");

Yes, all variables are stored in $this->_tpl_vars, so it should look like this:

{php} 

 $result = mysql_query("SELECT value FROM table WHERE fieldid = 9 AND relid = {$this->_tpl_vars['MYSMARTYVAR']}");

{/php}
