i read whole regexp chapter - but there was no solution for my problem. Example: re.sub("<!--.*-->","",htmldata) would remove only comments which are in one line. If comment is in many lines like this: <!--start of commend, end--> it would not work. It's because '.' sign does not matches '\n' sign. Does anybody knows solution for this particular problem ?
