However, if I write a rule like:<br>

I'm guessing what is happening, is that the pipe-regex is actually checking against "<a href="http://www.pwerdns.com"><a href="http://www.pwerdns.com">www.pwerdns.com</a></a>;ANY" which is usually the first query sent to the backend. Can anyone confirm this?<br>
<br>If so, it would be nice to change the documentation in a way that reflects this limitation. I.e. explaining that there isn't really a way to match on record type.<br><br>- Patrick<br><br><br>
