this is supposed to any occurrence of *something* into <strong>something</strong>

$str = preg_replace("!\*(.*?)\*!"," <strong>\\1</strong>\\2",$str);

it works fine on single lines, but it breaks when there's a \n (and perhaps other white spaces?) in the string, eg:

*something with
a newline*


I think this is because .*? doesn't include newlines... can anyopne help me modify the above to work on multiple lines????



Thanks!
