Search & Replace in Multiple Files by reading a input file

Hi,
I have a folder which contains multiple config.xml files and one input file, Please see the below format.

Config Files format looks like :-

Code:

Code:

  <application  name="SAMPLE-ARCHIVE">
      <NVPairs name="Global Variables">
        <NameValuePair>
            <name>MIG_Host</name>
            <value>217.171.101.225</value>
        </NameValuePair>
        <NameValuePairInteger>
            <name>MIG_Port</name>
            <value>8280</value>
        </NameValuePairInteger>       
  <services>
        <bw name="SAMPLE-ARCHIVE.par">
            <enabled>true</enabled>
            <bindings>
                <binding name="">
                    <machine>HOSTNAME</machine>
                    <product>
                        <type>bwengine</type>
                        <version></version>
                        <location></location>
                    </product>
                    <description></description>
                    <contact></contact>
               </binding>
            </bindings>
</services> 
</application>

INPUT FILE :-

Code:

Code:

MIG_Host,100.100.100.100
MIG_PORT,8080

Requirement :-

I need a shell script which should read the input file by each line and search for the first value in xml file and replace the value.

ex :-
search for "MIG_Host" in all xml files with in that folder and replace "217.171.101.225" value with "100.100.100.100"

In this way i need to apply each line to all xml files.

Thanks,
Suresh
