I'm deriving an extended TOC-Plugin for arctic from Ginas code and I'm
stuck with the simple task of testing for the existence of a page.

I found


search_pagename(&$data,$base,$file,$type,$lvl,$opts)


but no examples of how to use it.
What params do I need to test if a page bla:blobb exists?

Any hints or examples much appreciated.

Best regards,

Do you need search?
The answer to your question as asked - how to test for the existence of a page - is: 

best: resolve_pageid();
simple: file_exists(wikiFN());
both functions are part of inc/pageutils.php. You'll need to check there for details of parameters, return values, etc.
For details of the search call back functions (e.g. search_pagename) read the comments at the top of the file (inc/search.php).
