/^([a-zA-Z\d_-]+)[.html]$/
[download]

[.html] is a character class, so it won't match the whole fileextension, but only the first character of it, and because of the $ no name with any extension will match.

/^([a-z0-9_-]+)\.html$/i
[download]

should do the trick, notice the i (ignore case), to make the regexp more readable IMVHO.

Edit:added \ to the regexp.
