Forums Scripts & Popups Non-greedy regular expression not working

Hi I have this regular expression:

//echo -a $regex(aa bb cc dd wujdkrufj%hufhuiref ee ff gg,/\s(.*?%.*?)\s/) | //echo -a $regml(1)

When executed it returns:
1
bb cc dd wujdkrufj%hufhuiref

The second .*? seems to be non-greedy as requested but the first one doesn't. Am I missing something?
