Description
If present, the Top Trails-With-Certain-Documents Report: Patterns (trailswith) option indicates
that wusage should display the most commonly followed
trails (paths) through the server that included certain
specific documents. This report is useful in order to
determine how users arrive at a specific page.
The documents to be looked for are indicated using
pattern or regular expression syntax. See the
Patterns and Regular Expressions
section for more information. It is
important to remember that the document will not
necessarily be the first or last item in the trail, so it
is important to use the * wild card
at both ends, unless you actually want to match the
document only at the beginning or end. See the
Patterns and Regular Expressions
section for more information. Also see the example above.
After the pattern, you must specify a label to appear
in the report. This is indentical to the syntax for
the Items to be Charted (totalsgroup) report.
