Agreed - this is noticeably absent in WinHTTrack, even with the F1
(context-sensitive) Help. Once I became aware of this option:
%[param] param variable in query string
I did a search and found detailed usage syntax here:
<http://httrack.kauler.com/help/User-defined_structure>
[...]
%[param:before:after:empty:notfound] advanced variable extraction
param : parameter name
before : string to prepend if the parameter was found
after : string to append if the parameter was found
notfound : string replacement if the parameter could not be found
empty : string replacement if the parameter was empty
all fields, except the first one (the parameter name), can be empty
[...]
LOL in fact, just about a day before you (Scarbrow) posted this, I posted a
case where using this feature was the only solution I could think of to help
with a certain mirror:
<http://forum.httrack.com/readmsg/22377/22374/index.html>
Very, VERY useful, indeed!
