>- see footer for list info -<
Hi all,
I'm trying to fix some mis-used custom tags that haven't been closed, and
would like to avoid manually going through a couple of thousand files to fix
it. I know how to solve the problem going forward, but need to ensure
existing code is correctly updated.

So I decided a regex that will identify any <prefix:tag...> which isn't
followed by its own </prefix:tag> would work, but I can't figure it out at
the moment.

Getting the initial tag is easy enough ( <prefix:([a-z_]+)[^>]*[^/]> ), but
I can't think how to check for a lack of closing tag.
(especially considering it might be structured <prefix:tag> ... <prefix:tag>
... </prefix:tag> and I'd want the first one highlighted and not the second)

However, since this is just for a one-off check/fix any solution is fine, so
if anyone has a tool/editor that can do this without getting muddled up by
CF tags, that would be fine.

Thanks for any suggestions,

Peter
