thanks itkamaraj,
but that;s not I needed.


I will explain with your test data (with little changes).
Code:
<input>
<blah>
<blah>
<atr="blah blah" value = "">
<blah>
<blah>
</input>
<input>
<blah>
<blah>
<atr="blah blah" value = "">
<blah>
<blah>
</input>
<input>
<blah>
<blah>
<atr="blah blah" value = "dafasfasf">
<blah>
<blah>
</input>
<input>
<blah>
<blah>
<atr="blah blah" value = "abc">
<blah>
<blah>
</input>
<input>
<blah>
<blah>
<atr="blah blah" value = "">
<blah>
<blah>
</input>

Output should be: All lines between <input> and </input> where value=""
Code:
<input>
<blah>
<blah>
<atr="blah blah" value = "">
<blah>
<blah>
</input>

<input>
<blah>
<blah>
<atr="blah blah" value = "">
<blah>
<blah>
</input>

<input>
<blah>
<blah>
<atr="blah blah" value = "">
<blah>
<blah>
</input>
