Well, crap. I was hoping the stack overflow problem had been fixed... I don't have BBEdit at hand at the moment, unfortunately. Try this one: (?s)<filter>([^<]+(?!</filter>)<)*[^<]+<name>Shift Fields</name>.*?</filter> My understanding is that the stack overflow happens because (.)* pushes an item onto the stack for each repetition. This version of the regex reduces the number of repetitions by matching more of the string in each repetition.
