iRule redirect - change domain, path but keep unique ID

I'm having trouble getting an iRule right that redirects domain, modifies path, but maintains a trailing unique identifier. I intend to redirect:     http://documents.test.com/retrieve.asp?guid...
application delivery

Well it looks like he was pretty close to a solution as the following works but with some minor issues:

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if { [HTTP::uri] starts_with "/retrieve.asp"}{

 

HTTP::redirect "http://[string map {".../retrieve.asp?guid=" ".../Servicepages/RetrieveDocument.aspx?did="} [string tolower [HTTP::host]][HTTP::uri]]"

 

}

 

}

 

 

What I am unable to account for is that R in retrieve.asp could either be upper or lower. Currently in QA I am using two Irules on the VIP due to this issue so that it will catch both upper and lower. I would like to consolidate this into a single Irule.
