Selenium IDE assertLocation

I'm trying to get my feet wet with Selenium IDE and I wanted to test the login process of the website that I work for. Once logged in you get a "newton" (its what my boss calls it) put in front of the members area of the website http://abc1234.members.domain.tld So I wanted to use assertLocation with a glob:http://*.members.domain.tld but I can't seem to get the syntax right or I'm just doing it plain wrong:

<tr>
<td>assertLocation</td>
<td>glob:http://*.members.domain.tld</td>
<td></td>
</tr>

but in the log I get:

[error] Actual value 'http://abc1234.members.domain.tld/' did not match 'glob:http://*.members.titanmen.com'

I tried all sorts of combinations of globs and regexs in various td fields even tried things like assertLocation(glob:http://*.members.domain.tld)

What am I doing wrong?

And I see what I've mess up, no trailing slash <td>assertLocation</td><td>glob:http://*.members.domain.tld/</td><td></td> - Tawm
Actually the log you posted showed you were lookgin for members.titanmen.com but getting a location of members.domain.tld. But yes the trailing slash likely tripped you up. - DMart

The assertLocation command will get current absolute address of the current page, which is http://abc1234.members.domain.tld/ and compare it with pattern you entered in target, which is non-sensual glob:http://*.members.domain.tld and therefore the test-case is finished as failed.

The target should be most probably just http://*.members.domain.tld/
