The methode getString in ResourceManager has a third optional Parameter.
"If a parameters Array is passed to this method, the parameters in it
are converted to Strings and then substituted, in order, for the
placeholders "{0}", "{1}", and so on, in the String before it is returned."
in your properties-File:
search_label=Search {0} {1} on {2}
Then pass in an array containing three objects.
