Hi Roy,

The "viewer" property method of adding viewer links currently supports
limited macro replacement to build link URLs that contain data URL
information. This is described in the "Adding the Dataset URL to the
Viewer Link" section of the TDS viewer page

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/THREDDS/tech/tds4.2/reference/Viewers.html

If that isn't flexible enough, that page also describes how to write
your own pluggin java class to construct the viewer link URL in the
"Create a Viewer implementation Java class" section.
