You probably mean (:input form:) not (:form:), and later {$PageUrl} not  
$PageUrl.

No, it is not required, but if the script which is receiving the posted form  
expects a $_POST['n'] or $_GET['n'] variable instead of $_REQUEST['n'] or  
simply $pagename, you may need to add to the form

   (:input hidden n {*$FullName}:)

(:input form action={$PageUrl}:) works on my home server, the posted form  
lands on the same WikiSandbox page and not on Main.HomePage.
