I was going throught some of the templates I found in the web and found one with following regular expression: (?s:^.*$) When using http://www.regexr.com/ which I find very good and complete, regexr.com<http://regexr.com> tells me that the question mark at the beginning is invalid? So which way do you write or validate your expressions? Tks for feedback.
