Hello,
 
I didn't get it right to ignore some URLs during evaluation of a target webapp.
Let's say the target URL should be

    http://test.host/foo/bar/index.html
 
On this entry site there are two links (among others) which should NOT be 
considered for further investigation by W3AF:

    http://test.host/foo/search/
    http://test.host/print.html
 
I didn't get it right yet trying for instance:

    set ignore_regex .*(search|print\.html)$

or (to get rid of at least the first link)

    set ignore_regex .*search.*

or even (trying to match the second URL to ignore)

    set ignore_regex .*print\.html$
 
But W3AF always comes up with timeouts regarding both of the two URLs (the 
target webapp is running in a special test environment where the mentioned 
links are not backed by a responding application); it also lists the links in 
the report's section "URLs found during application scan".
 
What am I doing wrong here? I've tested the regular expressions for 
compatibility issues regarding PERL's syntax etc. here:

Thank you for any kind of help.
 
Christian
