$data = array( \'thundercats\' => \'Hoooooooooooh!\' ); return View::make(\'myawe
@enchance, as an alternative to using '*', as mentioned in your comment, perhaps a View::share would help you too. From the Laravel documentation:
You may also share a piece of data across all views: View::share('name', 'Steve');
You may also share a piece of data across all views:
View::share('name', 'Steve');
