Need help with grep and append

Hi,

Please help me with the following problem.
I have an xml, which has <init-param> tag occurances. I want to read and find the following set of occurances:

Code:

<init-param>
      <param-name>/default/directory</param-name>
      <param-value>default</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>/default/logoutpage</param-name>
      <param-value>https://qa.bankserv.com/depositnow/default</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>/default/changepassworddate</param-name>
      <param-value>60</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>/default/itemsperpage</param-name>
      <param-value>10</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>/default/title</param-name>
      <param-value>DepositNow - Online Bank Deposit</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>/default/autopopulate</param-name>
      <param-value>yes</param-value>
    </init-param>

After finding the above 6 occurances in the file, i want to replicate the same 6 occurances in the file just by changing the word "default" to a different word.

I hope i am clear with the question, so my output file will contain:
<init-param>
<param-name>/different/directory</param-name>
<param-value>different</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>/different/logoutpage</param-name>
<param-value>https://qa.bankserv.com/depositnow/different</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>/different/changepassworddate</param-name>
<param-value>60</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>/ different/itemsperpage</param-name>
<param-value>10</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>/different/title</param-name>
<param-value>DepositNow - Online Bank Deposit</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>/different/autopopulate</param-name>
<param-value>yes</param-value>
</init-param>

<init-param>
<param-name>/default/directory</param-name>
<param-value>default</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>/default/logoutpage</param-name>
<param-value>https://qa.bankserv.com/depositnow/default</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>/default/changepassworddate</param-name>
<param-value>60</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>/default/itemsperpage</param-name>
<param-value>10</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>/default/title</param-name>
<param-value>DepositNow - Online Bank Deposit</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>/default/autopopulate</param-name>
<param-value>yes</param-value>
</init-param>

Please help me.
