Question

(I did the best I could with my post title, but it may not really explain my question properly.)

For the sake of simplicity, say the 3 user agent strings that I want to target are:

Blue V1.0 | Red V1.0 Lite | Green V1.0

I can do this with this rewrite condition:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "blue|red|green" [NC]

But I only want to match the ‘Red’ user agent if it also contains the word “Lite” at some point later on in the string. If the user agent includes “Red”, but not “Lite”, I want to ignore it.

I was hoping that I could use something like this:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "blue|red+lite|green" [NC]

Is this possible? Thank you.

Answer 1

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "blue|red.*lite|green" [NC]

will match red only if it is followed by lite.
