title: JMeter - how to use dynamic variable in a HTTP request path
body: <p>I am wondering how I can use a dynamic variable in the Path field of a HTTP request . I am able to use User Defined Variables, but they are static, I need to use a variable that extracts some unpredictable value from the response of a previous HTTP request. I.e. the URL in the below scenario resolves literally to /this/and/that.jspx?param1=${testvar} , so you can see ${testvar} is not being substituted. How do I get ${testvar}, a variable created during regex extraction in a previous HTTP Request, to be substituted?</p>

  <p>FYI I am using JMeter 2.11 and upgrading may not be an option (corporate policies... )</p>
