Syntax

Code:
sed 's/\(<\/[^>]*>\)\(<[^:]*:Errort\)/\1 \2/g' test > test2

Worked well, but need to check other way round now. Do this syntax work? This syntax is for closing namespace <\ns1:Errort>

Code:
sed 's/(<\/[^:]*:Errort\)/\(<\/[^>]*>\)/\1 \2/g' test2 > test7

Not sure I understand. What do you mean by the other way around?

The first syntax is to create a space between two tags where <ns1:Errort> tag starts, which works fine with

Code:
Sample 1: Worked really well.

sed 's/\(<\/[^>]*>\)\(<[^:]*:Errort\)/\1 \2/g' test > test2

</tg1:XYZ123><ns1:Errort>

The other way round syntax which i mean is for creating a space for closing </ns1:Errort> tag. Which is something like this.

Code:
Sample 2: Not sure, there is something wrong with this, syntax is being garbled.

sed 's/(<\/[^:]*:Errort\)/\(<\/[^>]*>\)/\1 \2/g' test2 > test7

</ns1:Errort><tg2:123XYZ>

Ok, understood. Try:
Code:
sed -e 's/>\(<[^:]*:Errort\)/> \1/g' -e 's/\(<\/[^:]*:Errort>\)</\1 </g'

Mark.
