Great so far! Thanks.
So I tried this

(src|href)="http://*.(^arstechnica).*

against href="http://static.arstechnica.com/apple/ (yes I know it is missing a closing quotation)

and it did not match which is what I wanted and expected.

but when I put the " . " in the negated sub-expression like this

(src|href)="http://*.(^arstechnica.)*

it matches against href="http://static.arstechnica.com/apple/

which again I think it should not but I do not understand why as it seems that it would match up to the FIRST " . " then everything after IS "arstechnica.com/apple/" which should not match the because of the (^arstechnica.) part.

So can someone help with the why here

I guess I really should be using (src|href)"http://\0.(^arstechnica.)\1\2
