If you read John's message carefully (which is the output of
"help(re.search)") you can see the difference between "re.search" and
"re.match". The former looks for a regex anywhere in the given string, the
latter requires the string to begin with the given regex.

You're welcome!
Also, of course, parsing XML is a very common task and you might be
interested in using one of the standard modules for that, e.g.
http://docs.python.org/lib/module-xml.parsers.expat.html
Then all the tricky parsing work has been done for you.

Thank you very much, it works. I guess I didn't read it right.

You just need a one-character addition to your regex:
regex = re.compile(r'', re.S)
Note, there is now a question mark (?) after the .*
By default, regular expressions are "greedy" and will grab as much
text as possible when making a match. So your original expression was
grabbing everything bet
