It all depends on what you (or your regex variant) means by "string." In PERL it usually means a "line" i.e. whatever is between two lineend characters, but that need not be the case.
Sigil uses "almost" the Perl version of regex, via QT. I'm not sure how close that is to my understanding of ""regex."

And what looks like a "line" may be part of a "
Wrapped paragraph" in code view.
