Why does this preg_match fail?
Can someone plase explain why this statement fails?
PHP Code:
preg_match('/<h1>(*)<\/h1>/i', $line, $matches);
The failure results in the warning

Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Compilation failed: nothing to repeat at offset 5

If I enter this line instead (just to test the code), it works.
PHP Code:
preg_match('/<b class="main">(.*)<\/b>/i', $line, $matches);
