AliasPlugin supports use of javascript substitution markers (%0 through %9). Thus, if you define an alias (e.g., "SearchLink"), like this: <<alias searchLink "http://10.20.30.4/search?q=%0&entqr=0...";>> You can then invoke it like this: <<searchLink "V_A_R_I_A_B_L_E">> where the parameter value is automatically inserted in place of the %0, and is then rendered as if the original content was: http://10.20.30.4/search?q=V_A_R_I_A_B_L_E&entqr=0... You can even make things look nicer by using a PrettyLink in the alias definition: <<alias searchLink "[[search for %0|http://10.20.30.4/search?q= %0&entqr=0...]]">> which will display the external link using the text "search for V_A_R_I_A_B_L_E" instead of a big long ugly URL. enjoy, -e Eric Shulman TiddlyTools / ELS Design Studios --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
