I believe this is what I am looking for:

If anyone can polish this more or if I am wrong, pls give a note. Thanks.
Good putting the carat at the front -- I forgot that in my last post.
But there are problems with your pattern:
www\\.example matches "www\.example"
size=[\d|\d\d^10].* matches "size=0" and "size=100000000&foo=bar", etc.
The key here is word boundaries. This will let you distinguish easily
between "foosize" and "size", and between "10" and "10000000".
If you're on Linux or Windows, I highly recommend a little utility
called "regex-coach" for testing regex patterns in real time. Nothing
like instant feedback to facilitate quick learning. (Linux support
stopped at version 8.5, but that's plenty good enough for what it does,
and free-as-in-beer, too.)
Good luck,
Allen
