[squid-users] regex for normal websites

[robert k Wild]

nice one thanks Amos

i dont understand as in regex the terms

^ - start of line
. - any single character
* - repetition of character before
$ - end of line

 so going by this it should be

^.*adobe.com$

how come just

adobe.com$

as it doesnt know before adobe ie http(s)://www

sorry for the stupid question
