Replacing XML Tags

[dblaze]

Hi All,

I need to insert a fixed string of characters before the actual tag value in an XML file. Here's what I want to do:

<sometag>data</sometag>
<anothertag />


needs to look like:

<cmn:sometag>data</cmn:sometag>
<cmn:anothertag />

I need the 'cmn:' inserted after the < or </ and before tag name. The / in the ending tag is causing me the trouble.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Doug

(</?)(sometag>)

Replace with

$1cmn:$2
