If you want to add PTVs and/or modify PTVs use ptvtarget=
But if you also use template=, Fox expects also target=.
so don't use template= and also don't use put=top, the last is not
needed as no content is added, and instead a different process to add
and update PTVs is used.

So this should be the correct form snippet:
(:fox forminfo ptvtarget={$$cible} keepinput=1 formcheck=titreinfo pagecheck=1:)

If you want add content and update/add PTVs, you should use target=
and template= an d put= parameters for adding content, and either use
ptvtarget= as well, or use ptvupdate=1. The last one will use as
ptvtarget what is set with target=

Hope this makes it clearer. There are still some other ways of setting
target pages and ptv target pages, especially if more than one page
is set as target, but the above is the simplest.
