[pmwiki-users] Wiki trail in template header and footer

[DaveG]

I *think* the http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/Properties does what I 
need. Certainly I can define a variable and use it within the page 
itself. My attempts to use it in the template fail so far though. 
http://www.solidgone.com/pmwiki/index.php?n=Main.WikiSandbox

For some reason I get "{roperty TrailSource}" when I use either:
    <!--markup:{$property TrailSource}-->
OR simply
    {$property TrailSource}

Is this approach going to work, and if so how should I reference the 
define property. Or am I just out in la-la-land?
