It's hard to read such text, please use plain ASCII insteed HTML.

Perhaps you are looking for something like this:

test=# select * from search;
      text
----------------
 this is a test
(1 row)

test=# select * from pattern;
  text
---------
 ^this.*
 ^foo
(2 rows)

test=# select pattern.text, search.text from pattern, search where search.text ~ pattern.text;
  text   |      text
---------+----------------
 ^this.* | this is a test
(1 row)



HTH, Andreas
