Hi, When using replaceSuffix inside sling include tag like <sling::include replaceSuffix=test.pdf />
will it replace <a href="/content/mynode/file.bin/My Report.pdf">report</a> with "/content/mynode/file.bin/test.pdf" so I can use test.pdf file instead of My Report.pdf automatically. How can I use replaceSuffix inside sling:include tag correctly. regards, Janandith.
