Hi, Petko, thank you for the quick reply!
UpdatePage is not really available in the stable version, only in beta (but I have other problems with beta so would like to stick with the stable for now). The code is a bit more complicated so I won't overwrite existing pages. Anyway, if I'm sure I will be _creating_ the page, can I still use PostPage safely?

Use the UpdatePage() function, not PostPage(). Note that the code you posted, if it is that simple, it may allow someone to overwrite existing pages (and by the occasion, change their passwords). You should check to see if it is really a new page.
