Greetings,

I took a look at your template and I have a couple of questions for you. You are using #ifexist in several places; are you trying to check to see whether a parameter has been passed? If so, you can do that with.

checks to see whether or not a page exists by the name 'param' (literally -- to use its contents it would need to be ), and if so returns 'yes' (or 'no' if it doesn't), and can only be used a few times on any particular page (as it is deemed an 'expensive function' by WikiMedia and all successive calls to #ifexist beyond that limit automatically fail).

I just wanted to make sure that #ifexist was indeed your desired behavior before diving in to help.
