Hi, John,
I have a somewhat similar usage.
I have some javascript that I set in some pages, to obfuscate email
addresses, but still leave them clickable.
If I remember correctly, I just defined the metadata as blank on every
page, then defined it to have the required value on pages I wanted it to
appear on.
I didn't take the time to find out how to check if it was defined.
Certainly you can do that from perl directly - I think the perl function
"defined" will do what is required, but to do it that way, you would
have to figure out what variable or array or whatever to check.
Hopefully someone will have a more correct and useful answer than this.

Hi,
I have been trying to convert a site to use webmake. It looked like a
good option since I could have a single webmake file which accesses a
single template file, and then put the content for each page in a
separate file.
The content is more involved than just a title and part of the body. It
looked like webmake would be able to do what I want if I set various
things through metadata tags with names I made up. Now, if I set
metadata with names like special1, special2, special3, ... then to
handle it in the template file, I thought I could use the perl construct
to process it.
The examples directory shows how you can fetch a list of content names
and then work with them in a perl section. My question is, can I do
something similar with metadata? In particular, I would like a perl
section in a template to be able to determine what metadata values are
defined, and then access their values.
