[Pmwiki-users] Variables expansion in included files

[Patrick R. Michaud]

Several of the ...Fmt variables are not in fact global variables but
are created dynamically by FmtPageName depending on the pagename being 
formatted.  These would include $PageUrl, $Group, $Title, $Groupspaced, 
$Titlespaced, and $Title_ (there may be a few others).

However, you can call PmWiki's formatter directly, which will handle
both these special Fmt-variables and global variables as well.  Thus
you can do (borrowing from your example):

 <?php
 	echo FmtPageName("Page last modified \$LastModified (<b><a 
          href='\$PageUrl?action=edit'>Edit</a></b> |
   	  <a href='\$PageUrl?action=diff'>Revisions</a> |
 	  <a href=''>Help</a> |
 	  <a href='\$ScriptUrl/Main/SearchWiki'>Search</a> |
 	  <a href='\$ScriptUrl/Main/AllRecentChanges'>Changes</a>)
 	  <td></tr>",$pagename);
 ?>

and FmtPageName will do the (global+other) substitutions.
