Sending a "value" to the template

I would like to know if it is possibile to organize an ASPX template in order it can receive a parameter from a page (document) that is based on that template.

I'm not talking about a querystring, but something that I can edit for each instance of the documents in the backoffice (for example in the "Edit Regions & webparts" form ?)

Then it could be very useful in the codefile of the template to do at runtime some assumptions on the value of the parameter (eg to hide/show something, etc)

thx

RE:Sending a "value" to the template

Helena,
sorry for my ignorance...

I create my field (eg. "MyAttribute" of type text), I see in the Form tab of the Page and I can fill with some values (eg "myValue")

Now, how can I retrieve ("myValue") from the codebehind of my aspx template ??

Something Like
if (Class.Method["myAttribute"] == "myValue")

thanks
Sandro
