There are modifiers which can be applies to Perl-compatable regular
expressions. In this case you could add "s" after the trailing slash:
/<\?.+\?>/s
This allows the match to span multiple lines rather than cease at the end of
the first newline encountered.
Under normal circumstances PHP code should not be displayed in an external web
browser. However, I assume you are displaying the contents of external files
from within a PHP program.
