Woops, yeah . won't pickup the \n and without being able to setup the multiline option this regex isn't enough. So change it to: (.|\n)*33(.|\n)* > I've also had trouble applying options. eg > > /IN/i > > I could not make it work in either a single or multiline > scenario, either lower or upper case.

If you're contructing the RegExp object the expression is the first param and the options are the second. So this goes back to the whole inability to apply options thing. It's not that bad, just that you always need to make a regex that does a complete match.
