I tried to do it like this:

In config.php:
 $FmtPV['$Posted'] = "'" . $IsPagePosted . "'"; #capture contents of
$IsPagePosted
and I also tried
 $FmtPV['$Posted'] = '$GLOBALS["IsPagePosted"]';

But I couldn't get my new page variable to display anything.  Am I using
FmtPV wrongly?

Then I planned on using (:if Posted true:) in a group header or some other
permanent part of the html template to generate a message (or email form)
after posting. But I'm also not sure of the syntax for the conditional
markup.

Is there any reason why this approach wouldn't work if I could get the
syntax right?

Thanks,

Francis
