Ditto and totalpages not as expected

I have several pages of article summarys - which is working ok - but in the pagination I’m not getting the expected results from ’totalpages’
This is the pagination code;

<div id="page-articles">Page <strong>[+currentPage+]</strong> of <strong>[+totalpages+]</strong> pages<br /> <div id="page-nextprev">[+previous+] [+pages+] [+next+]</div> </div>

The pagination works ok, but doesn’t display the total number of pages (see screen grab.)
Any help appreciated.

All the parameters are camel case so totalpages is totalPages. Please see http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,12262.msg81596.html for a tutorial.

Hi Mark; Well I see now why it didn’t work - but - in the TRAC (http://mirror3.cvsdude.com/trac/ditto/codebase/wiki/tutorials/CreateCustomTemplate)
It is showing as "totalpages" and every other document I have ("Useful Ditto Placeholders") shows it that way.
