I need to match a few urls for an application I'm working on;
So, I've got this reference string:
content/course/32/lesson/61/content/348
and I need a pattern that matches either
content
OR
content/course/[number]/lesson/[number]/content/[number]
What I've done so far is come up with this pattern:
$my_regex = "/content(\/?|(\/course\/\d{1,4}\/lesson\/\d{1,4}\/content\/\d{1,4}))$/";
which however has the following problem: This string returns a match which should otherwise not:
content/course/32/lesson/61/content
I'm thinking that it's got something to do with the word content
repeating twice but I'm not entirely sure.
Any help is much appreciated.
