In htl how can we check if the page URL contains specific text ?  ( intend to do it on the page rather than by Java )

${'a' in 'abc'} <!--/* returns true */-->  does not work

    Hi,

    It may not be working because of old HTL version (Shipped with AEM)

    please check specifications at htl-spec/CHANGELOG.md at master · adobe/htl-spec · GitHub

    I tried in AEM 6.5, it works.

      Does not work in AEM 6.4 GA.

      You can try using a small use js file and pass it the test string value as shown below:

      Or go for Java.

      filepath.js:

      use(function () {
          var testStr= this.value;
          var retValue = currentPage.path.toLowerCase().contains(testStr.toLowerCase());
          return {
              hasString: retValue
          };
      });

      HTL Code:

      <div data-sly-use.path="${'filepath.js' @ value='demo-page'}">
          ${path.hasString}
      </div>

      I have converted both strings to lower case for case insensitive check.
