You're trying to do it all in one regex. That doesn't work; what you tried will attempt to test that the same *substring* of the regex matches both of those, which is not possible because they're both literal. So any given substring has to be one, the other, or neither, it can't simultaneously be both.
Either use two different matches, or put something like .* in between instead of trying to use & or &&.
