Replacing number between xml tags with ksh shell script

Hallo,

im basically a complete noob on shell scripting and im trying to replace or rather add 1 to a number between xml tags.

The xml basically has a tag somewhere that looks like this:
Code:
<tag>12345678901234</tag>

Now i want to replace the number between the tags. And i want the file to contain the following after the shell command.
Code:
<tag>12345678901235</tag>

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also links to decent tutorials for noobs like me Smilie.

Thanks!
