RegEx expression that will capture everything between two characters including multiline blocks

Question

I want to capture all text & blocks of text between <% and %>.

For example:

&l         


        

Answer 1

I've been using Microsoft's Regex engine (provided by JScript in IE) and it has a 'multi-line' switch that effects the behaviour of ., but then still I've had problems I had to resolve using [\u0000-\uFFFF] which matches everything including EOL's or any control chars...

So have a go with <%([\u0000-\uFFFF]*?)%>
