What reg expression patten to I need to match everything between {{ and }}I'm trying to parse wikipedia, but im ending up with orphan }} after running the rexex code. Here's my PHP script.\[code\]<?php$articleName='england';$url = "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Export/" . $articleName;ini_set('user_agent','custom agent'); //required so that Wikipedia allows our request.$feed = file_get_contents($url);$xml = new SimpleXmlElement($feed);$wikicode = $xml->page->revision->text;$wikicode=str_replace("[[", "", $wikicode);$wikicode=str_replace("]]", "", $wikicode);$wikicode=preg_replace('/\{\{([^}]*(?:\}[^}]+)*)\}\}/','',$wikicode);print($wikicode);?>\[/code\]I think the problem is I have nested {{ and }} e.g.{{ something {{ something else {{ something new }}{{ something old }} something blue }} something green }}
