-      <p>In any case, remember that regular expressions are substring
-      matches. That is, you don't need the regex to describe the entire
-      string, just the part that you wish to match. Thus, using a regex
-      of <code>.</code> is often sufficient rather than <code>.*</code>,
-      and the regex <code>abc</code> is <strong>not</strong> the same as
-      <code>^abc$</code>.</p>
