[pmwiki-devel] How to properly read a PTV in a function

[Randy Brown]

I am working on a recipe that provides the user with a directive that selects a page text variable found on a specified page. Unfortunately, I'm finding that if the PTV contains a link whose target is {$FullName}, the link appends "FullName" to the target. For example

MyPTV: [[MyPage?action=...etc.

will give me a link to a page named "MyPageFullName" as if I had written

[[MyPageFullName?action=...etc.

Why does this transformation happen? How can I prevent it?
