title: YQL (Yahoo! Query Language) - Help with adding parameters
body: <p>I'm doing a very simple YQL statement:</p>
  
  <pre><code>select * from xml where url="http://www.wowhead.com/item=50278&amp;xml"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The rest query looks like this (super long with crazy url escape codes):</p>
  
  <pre><code>http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=select%20*%20from%20xml%20where%20url%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wowhead.com%2Fitem%3D50278%26amp%3Bamp%3Bxml%22
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So I'm trying to use the query alias to shorten it down. I know I can use something like url=@parameter but how would I do it so the item number is the variable and the rest query would look something like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql/RVCA18/wowheadXML?item=50278
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I appreciate the help :)</p>
