According to the RTC support guide, the Email template language is Apache Velocity.
the Apache Velocity language says that I should be able to manipulate the contents of variables using the java string class methods.

and example is


	

	#set( $a = "Hello" )
	

	#set( $b = "+" )
	

	#set( $c = $a.replace("l", ${b}) )
	

	${c}

but I get an error when I try this..

Invalid reference $a.replace()

have to GET the thing in string format first


	#set( $a = "Hello" )
	

	#set( $b = "+" )
	

	#set( $c = $a.toString().replace("l", ${b}) )
	

	${c}

displays He++o


	#set( $c = $a.toString().replace("l", "+")
	

	${c}
