by using both ^ and $ you are doing an exact match for
http://www.thewebsite.com. Try changing it to:

acl THEWEBSITE url_regex ^http://www.thewebsite.com

or even try:

acl THEWEBSITE dst www.thewebsite.com

(which I guess may cause some other sites to not be cache if they are
virtual hosted on the same IP address).

Hope this helps,
