Description
Is there a way to make my arguments within my view tag dynamic?
If so, what would I use? Rep Tags, PHP, tokens, something else?
An example...
Here's my tag: [view:historical_sites_by_person=block=John Adams]
Lets say I were to place this tag in a block that displayed on both on John Adams' page and Thomas Jefferson's page. I'd like to dynamically add the name of the historical person in the argument field so that I don't have to have dozens of blocks, but only one.
Let me know if this isn't clear.
And thank you.

Not sure if this will help give ideas

I have a node which I insert a view which has an argument (Happens to be a name), I wanted the header of the view to have a standard text but insert the argument (name)

You can use PHP, if you enable the insert view filter for the PHP input format.
Following is an example:
<?php print $my_arg = 1 ?>[view:tracker==<?php print $my_arg ?>]
this will show all of UID 1's tracking results
