dealing with blank line on response assertion

Hi everybody, 
I am very new to JMeter and I am trying out JMeter for a week now and I am loving it. I have a question about response assertion. My assertion always failed when I have blankline on response data returns.
For example:
My Response  data returns
<root name="Hello">
 
 
 
</root>
 
 
 
 
I am doing the response assertion with Text Response selected and contain is slected on pattern matching rule. 
 
 
"My pattern to Test" value is 
 
<root name="Hello">.*</root>
 
How do I ignore the blank line?. 
 
Thanks for the help
Dave

By default, "." does not match newlines, so your regex does not match
the example. See:

http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/component_reference.html#Response_Assertion

To match newlines as well, you can either set single line mode:

(?s)<root name="Hello">.*</root>

or you could explicitly match newline:

<root name="Hello">[.\n]*</root>
