regexp

[vertigo]

Hello

Thanx for help, i have one more question:

i noticed that while matching regexp python tries to match as wide as it's  
possible,
for example:
re.sub("<!--.*-->","",htmldata)
would cut out everything before first "<!--" and last "-->" in the  
document.
Can i force re to math as narrow as possible ?
(to match first "<!--" with the first "-->" after the "<!--" and to repeat
this procedure while mentioned pattern is still found) ?

Thanx
