You want [^*]*? Thinking of the brilliant potential for misunderstanding that this answer entails. Christophe: I don't understand why you are asking me whether I want [^*]*. Jokes aside, I think you need the non-greedy question mark modifier, but not on [^*]*. You use it to make .* non-greedy. Otherwise it will stop at the first '*' that it encounters. This works: <xsl:template name="xsl:initial-template"> <doc> <xsl:analyze-string select="'Comments are delimited by **/* */** or prefixed by **//**'" regex="\*\*(.*?)\*\*"> <xsl:matching-substring> <b> <xsl:value-of select="regex-group(1)"/> </b> </xsl:matching-substring> <xsl:non-matching-substring> <xsl:value-of select="."/> </xsl:non-matching-substring> </xsl:analyze-string> </doc> </xsl:template>
