Regex - targeting urls with dashes only?

[Frosty]

I'm hoping to finish a regex that I've been trying to craft, and would like some advice as I've hit a roadblock .

 

 

So I have a whole list of urls. I need to only capture 'seo friendly' (typically article/post titles) urls with at least one dash, like:

http://thepigeonnest.com:80/passenger-pigeons-ectopistes-migratorius/
http://thepigeonnest.com/pigeon-lover-mike-tyson-to-star-in-pigeon-reality-show/

But, my regex also captures sub-folders without a dash like:

http://pinkstripedpig.com/contact/

My regex so far is thus:

http://([a-z0-9]+(-[a-z0-9]+)*\.)+[a-z]{2,}(/|:80/)[a-z0-9-]+/

Turn

[a-z0-9-]+

which says "at least one letter or number or hyphen", into

[a-z0-9]+-[a-z0-9-]+

which says "at least one letter or number, then a hyphen, then more letters or numbers or hyphens".

Wow, that's much more eloquent than the one I just come up with:

http://([a-z0-9]+(-[a-z0-9]+)*\.)+[a-z]{2,}(/|:80/)((\w)+(-)+)+\w+/

Many thanks!

 

Issue resolved.
