Guess I was even more confused than you then. Even my subject header was 
wrong.

Here's what I meant to say.
Is there a way to determine whether a variable passed into an included 
page has a value, and whether the variable has actually been passed in? 
Doing something like:
   (:include mygroup.mypage var="myval" :)

and then inside mygroup.mypage:
   (:if !equal {$$var} "" :)

The above works, except when {$$var} is not actually passed into the 
included page, as:
   (:include mygroup.mypage var="myval" :)

in which case {$$var} evaluates to the string "{$$var}" (ie, no 
substitution, as there is nothing to substitute).

I can use a Markup Expression to do a test, but wondered if there was a 
'built-in' way.
