Hello monks,

i want to close </book-part> tag before the next chapter tag beginning

e.g

<book-part book-part-type="chapter" book-part-number="\d+" id="chapter\d+">

its a beginning tag of each chapter.

"</book-part>" should close before next chapter's opening tag,(i.e)</book-part> is an ending tag of each chapter

plz give some suggestion, thank u monks

i try below code but i does't show any changes

if($str =~ /<book-part book-part-type="chapter" id="chapter\d+">((?:(?
+!<\/?book-part book-part-type="chapter" id="chapter\d+">).)*)(?=<book
+-part book-part-type="chapter" id="chapter\d+">)/sgi)
    {
    $str .="<book-part>";
    }

<book-part book-part-type="chapter" book-part-number="2" id="chapter2"
+>

"</book-part>" this is first chapter's closing and "<book-part book-part-type="chapter" book-part-number="2" id="chapter2">" this is second chapter opening
