The search vmeth is what you want, to find if a string contains a
pattern:
[% dynamicstring = 'dragonballZ' %]
[% IF dynamicstring.search('Z') %]
dynamicstring has a 'Z'
[% ELSE %]
Sorry, no love
[% END %
How old is your copy of TT? According to CVS, the latest change to the
search vmeth was in June 2001, which was probably about 2.03 (-ish).
