i'm trying to make a filter to block the majority of imdb ads. however this filter isn't working, i need some more help.

Code:

/imdb\.com/*/(48|38|88|98|09|19|58)\.(swf|gif|jpg)/


i hope you see what i'm trying to do here
the ads are things such as
48.jpg
88.gif
09.swf

In RegExs the wildcard character is a period. The asterisk means "one or more of the preceding character".

This should work:
Code:
/imdb\.com/.*/(48|38|88|98|09|19|58)\.(swf|gif|jpg)/
