Custom Token

Stonewall

We have added a custom token where if the Link Contains /sites/XYZ/default.page

Then the token will remove the XYZ from the URL

if (this.mParameter.contains("sites/XYZ")) {
LOGGER.debug("URL Contains XYZ");
String out_old = this.mParameter;
String out_new=out_old.replace("sites/XYZ/", "/");
LOGGER.debug("this.mParameter ==>"+out_new+":-----");
writer.print(out_new);
}
else
{
LOGGER.debug("URL Does not Contain XYZ");
writer.print(this.mParameter);
}

In the XSLT we have the below

$XYZ_PREFIX[]

But when the Component Renders, its adds JUNK characters

"/default.page%0A%09%09%09%09"

Adam Stoller

First, the code could probably be more simply written as:

LOGGER.debug("IN : '" + this.mParameter + "'");
String str = this.mParameter.replace("sites/XYZ/", "/");
LOGGER.debug("OUT: '" + str + "'");
writer.print(str);

Or if you prefer something more closely matching your existing code:

if (this.mParameter.contains("sites/XYZ")) {
    LOGGER.debug("IN : '" + this.mParameter + "'");
    String str = this.mParameter.replace("sites/XYZ/", "/");
    LOGGER.debug("OUT: '" + str + "'");
    writer.print(str);
}
else {
    LOGGER.debug("VAL: '" + this.mParameter + "'");
    writer.print(this.mParameter);
}

Second: The %0A is a linefeed character, and the %09s are horizontal tabs

Third: I have no idea why those characters are getting embedded in the resulting string - does it only happen when there is a sites/XYZ string in the original string, or only when there is not such a string there - or always regardless of whether that string is in the $profile string?

The answer to the third question might help you to reduce the scope of the code you have to search through... It also might help (you and/or us) to see a more complete set of debugging output...
