@itsjoshbruce You didn't specify what language/tool you're using (they all differ in how their regexes work), so here's a vim solution:

{!!zs_.{-}ze!!}<br></br>

@barubary: That’s fair and I’ll try to remember in the future. The amount of times I’ve used regex I can’t on one finger and the iterations on two. lol

Good to know for the future though.

@itsjoshbruce
{!!.*?!!}

if that doesn't work for some reason:

{!![^!]*!!}

Here's a good tester: https://regex101.com/

and test it using two instances of that input string. Depending on the recognizer you're using, you may not have to escape the !.

@allenholub: It didn't seem to work for me.

Just found this one, though:

{!!([\S\s]*?)!!}

@itsjoshbruce That'll work. I forgot that "." doesn't match end of line. The [\S\s] means any white or non-white character, so it sucks up the newline.
