Sorry for the LAAAAAAAATE response, but I've been working like crazy for the last month. Since this email, we've worked in the development of the white list and black list at a framework level, which will help you with this. But... have you tried to use a regex like: .*\.(?:mp3|flac|flv|swf|pdf)$ I think that the missing .* at the beginning could be the problem, Cheers, > Thanks, > > Zach > > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > W3af-users mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/w3af-users > > -- Andrés Riancho Founder, Bonsai - Information Security http://www.bonsai-sec.com/ http://w3af.sf.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
