iRule to determine if a URI is prent and somethign follows it

I'm new to iRules to please bear with me. I need to right an iRule that checks for the existence of a word ( lets say GUI ) within a URI but also has something following the word ( in the case , GUI ). An example will clarify things ( I hope ). And the word ( GUI ) can occur anywhere within URL:

 

Allowed /A/B/GUI/C

 

Disallowed /A/B/GUI

 

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

    Perhaps something like this:

    when HTTP_REQUEST {    
    if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] ends_with "gui" } {        
        reject            
    }        
}

    In the above the key word can exist anywhere in the URI (or not at all) unless the URI ends with the key word.
