Hi Jay,

You can use string match with multiple wildcards: 

 
 string match -nocase "*pattern*" "some string"

Or you could use the -glob flag for switch: 

 
 switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] { 
    "uri1*xxxURI2*" { 
       ...

Either string-based option would be more efficient than a regex.
