This isn't accurate enough because <DT> is not always preceeded by:

This expression matches fairly well:
<DD>[a-zA-Z0-9\.,'\-\s]*
So it matches up to the <DT>:
<DD> A whole bunch of text
<DT> Something else </DT>
But I don't know how to do the replace part.
So essentially I need find this:
<DD> A whole bunch of text
and replace it with this:
<DD> A whole bunch of text </DD>
