No. But I have downloaded another skin and modified it. It works well. I
can switch between this skin and monobook and pmwiki and all work well.

I'm looking at using fox for new page creation. The simple recipe
works pretty well, however there's something I'm not quite getting.
In the good old days, using just the normal method of creating a new

Not even if I set it to

work.
Also if I set it to a relative address like

For Site Analyzer, when I put in my config.php:

[pmwiki-users] How to get edit textarea to stretch to width of bounding box?

I'm trying to figure out how to get the textarea in the EditForm page
to stretch to the entire width of the bounding box (like saying
width:100% in CSS, only that doesn't work). I notice that the standard
pmwiki skin does this, but I'm stumped as to where it does this.

2012-03-19T06:18:58Z

I've got a WikiTrail of pages, the core of which is Cosms.Orrorsh-TrailIndex .
I use this as a general Table of Contents—via (:include :) inside an rframe—and at the bottom of each individual page (standard PmWiki markup) for an easy way to navigate the collection of pages.
Both work beautifully. I can add and delete pages from the -TrailIndex, and everything updates as it should.

By the way, Mini coupled with MiniEdit and DragDropMultiUpload make an

Dear Petko
Apologies for my delayed reply and many thanks for your answers. Your hint with the globals declaration works great (I did try to access the globals with the globals array only and not by declaring them global in my script, which was my error).
This works as well, though not exactly like I was hoping to use it. I was hoping to use a directive like this in the skin template’s php file (where I have all the skin related conditional stuff).

[pmwiki-users] how to access configuration variables from skin scripts

2012-02-25T13:06:03Z

hi
I am currently working on a skin with multiple templates, where most of the content is loaded from page variables (using the functions described in [link]).

The functions described in the link given above work just fine, configuration variables (such as $FarmD, $SkinDirUrl, etc.) however are not accessible. Is there a function readily available to access these variables? My search in the documentation index did not spawn any helpful results so far.
