you need pattern modifier s (PCRE_DOTALL) this makes . match all chars including newline m (PCRE_MULTILINE) just affexts where ^ and $ match the following worked for me ... <? $content = ' text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text. '; preg_match_all("|(.*)|sU",$content, $body, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER); foreach($body[1] as $key => $font){ print htmlspecialchars($font)." \n"; ?> -- Sean
