Special Escape Sequences - AMX TPI-PRO-2 Operation/Reference Manual

Special Escape Sequences

The system has only a limited knowledge of URL formats in that it transparently passes the URL information
onto the server for translation. A user can then pass any parameters to the server side programs such as CGI
scripts or active server pages. However, the system will parse the URL looking for special escape codes.
When it finds an escape code it replaces that code with a particular piece of panel, button, or state information.
For example, "http://www.amx.com/img.asp?device=$DV" becomes
"http://www.amx.com/img.asp?device=10001".
