I've asked similar question before, yet running into deeper issues that I'm hoping to fix. I'm trying to indentify a specific scenario with Regex.

Link to previously asked question: Previous question and answer

In the example bellow my goal is the remove brackets around second (second can be any other word):

content = [](first-(second))

I've been recommended to use the following method:

content.replace(/(?<=\]\()(.*)(?=\))/g, (x) => x.replace(/[()]/g, '')):

Perfect outcome: [](first-second)

It worked until I ran into another string that looked like this:

content = ([](first-(second)))

Outcome: ([]first-(https)

I think my goal now is to add a condition, that checks if the word is equal to https then don't touch it. If you have a better option to deal with this, I would be glad to hear it.
