He's right -- take out that and it works just fine for me. And if I put a linebreak at the end of $string that works too.

His sample data looks like it has newlines. Did you test yours with a newline in the data? It should work fine (for some definition of "fine") if the data contains one.
This may well be the problem. He may be removing the newline, for instance. But, as given, there isn't error at all. The code works.

I'm wondering if maybe it's the last chicken in the shop, I mean, the last line in a block, and that \n should be (\n|\z), i.e. "a newline or the end of the file". I got caught by that one recently...
