Sorry but balancing tags is a separate action that does require parsing the 
HTML, whereas grep searches are governed by the standard rules for regular 
expression matching, which (as Sam mentioned :-) are not well-suited to parsing 
HTML.

If however your files contain any distinct content immediately after the 
"main-content" div, it may be possible to construct a search which keys on that 
content, or perhaps there may be some other way to come to grips with the task 
-- either way, an actual sample file would be helpful. :-)
