OK, having finally got fed up with the Linux Today site, I decided that I should try to get to grips with some more of JPluck's features.

Unfortunately, I cannot find any meaningful documentation and I'm afraid that I am already stuck!

What I want to do first of all is transform the uri's of the summary articles to their print friendly alternatives.

The form of the normal article uri's is:
  "http:\\linuxtoday.com/.*/yyyymmddaaabbXXYYZZ"

where yyyymmdd is the date, aa and bb are numbers and XX, YY, ZZ are upper case letters. ".*" is a folder name.

And I need to transform that to

"http:\\linuxtoday.com/.*/mailprint.php3?action=pv&ltsn=yyyy-mm-dd-aaa-bb-XX-YY-ZZ"

If there anyone who can help?

If the "str:substitute(String s, String regexp, String replace)" expression function allows references from the source regex to be used in the replacement I can work it out for myself as I am familiar with regex but I am just not sure.

Many thanks if you can help ... and commiserations if you can't! ;)
