Subject: Regexp Question: Checking for [joe][/joe] pairs

Hey, I've got some text in @x and want there to be at least 1 and at
most 3 [joe][/joe] pairs, each having at least one character between the
beginning [joe] and the ending [/joe].

This is what I have now, and it seems to sometimes work, and sometimes
not.

@x.match(/(\[joe\][\s\d\w]+?\[\/joe\]){1,3}/)
