These are not proper patterns for urlpath_regex.

urlpath_regex is a regex match to the file path after the hostname, i.e.
in case of the URL
http://www.awprofessional.com/articles/article.asp?p=363731 urlpath_regex
will do a regex pattern match against "/articles/article.asp?p=363731"

regex is a pattern matching language, same as used by grep and most other
UNIX tools.

    man 7 regex

or your favorite UNIX book (there is even books about regex alone..)
