I'm trying to move the category description text (for the current category) to the header of my site.

Copying the following code from tpl_index_categories.php doesn't seem to work.

Code:
<?php echo $current_categories_description; ?>
Now, this is probably not working because the SQL code has not yet run, which pulls the category description from the database, right?

I presume that this code is run after the header is generated.

The problem is, I'm not sure how (or even if) this code can be moved.

Does anyone know of a work around for this?
