none that i am aware of. Any method to change PTVs via url input
would need some security measures to prevent intentional and
accidental page content changes.

form processing scripts like PmForm and Fox have their own function
to achieve this. There is no core Pmwiki function.
you could have a look at
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/SetPageTextVariable
This recipe script is basically one function, and you could perhaps
use it, or modify it for your recipe.
