Hello all,

I have a function (urlhost) which finds the 'host' portion of a URL. In the case of 
http://www.foobar.com/really/long/path/to/a/file it returns "www.foobar.com".

I also have a function (urltld) which returns the TLD of a URL. In the case of 
http://www.foobar.com/really/long/path/to/a/file it returns ".com" (the leading dot is 
OK).

urltld uses urlhost to do it's job (how should be apparent).

Now the question: is there a single index I can create that will be used when my  
WHERE clause contains either urlhost or urltld? I could create two functional indexes, 
but that seems a bit silly to me.

Any thoughts?
