title: Regex getting everything between tags over multiple line VB.Net
body: <p>Here is a page with a lot of stuff on it but it has 50 blocks of the blocks I have posted below.</p>
  
  <p>HTML Block</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;li&gt;
      &lt;dl&gt;
          &lt;dd&gt;
  
          &lt;a href="/wow/en/item/113987" class="color-q4" data-item="pl=100&amp;amp;cc=5&amp;amp;bl=566"&gt;
  
  
  
  
      &lt;span  class="icon-frame frame-18 " style='background-image: url("http://media.blizzard.com/wow/icons/18/inv_misc_trinket6oih_lanternb1.jpg");'&gt;
      &lt;/span&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;Obtained &lt;a href="/wow/en/item/113987" class="color-q4" data-item="pl=100&amp;amp;cc=5&amp;amp;bl=566"&gt;Battering Talisman&lt;/a&gt;.
  
  
  &lt;/dd&gt;
          &lt;dt&gt;22 hours ago&lt;/dt&gt;
      &lt;/dl&gt;
      &lt;/li&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The code I'm using now only searches for this line</p>
  
  <pre><code>Obtained &lt;a href="/wow/en/item/113987" class="color-q4" data-item="pl=100&amp;amp;cc=5&amp;amp;bl=566"&gt;Battering Talisman&lt;/a&gt;.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can I get my MatchCollection to return the full HTML block as 1 match?</p>
  
  <pre><code>Dim explorer As New WowExplorer(WowDotNetAPI.Region.EU, Locale.en_GB, "apikey")
      Dim Request As System.Net.HttpWebRequest = System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Create("http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/" &amp; Me.Realm &amp; "/" &amp; Me.Name &amp; "/feed")
      Dim Response As System.Net.HttpWebResponse = Request.GetResponse
      Dim sr As System.IO.StreamReader = New System.IO.StreamReader(Response.GetResponseStream())
      Dim Sourecode As String = sr.ReadToEnd
  
      Dim Item_ As New System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex( _
      "Obtained &lt;a href=""/wow/en/item/.*"" class=""color-q4"".*")
  
      Dim matche_name As MatchCollection = Item_.Matches(Sourecode)
      For Each Match As Match In matche_name
          Dim ItemID As String
          Dim ID_Match As String = Match.Value.Split("/").GetValue(4)
          ItemID = ID_Match.Split("""").GetValue(0)
          Me.Items.Add(explorer.GetItem(ItemID, ItemSource))
      Next
  </code></pre>
