Hi,

Can any one tell me whats wrong in my original posted code, since in my actual implementation i can not do awk exact match. Since the data will be having multiple lines of same match pattern. So i am using xmllint to get the desired tag values. Hence i am unable to use this code.

Please refer my initial post wherein i have mentioned only one line in the input. But actually it will be having multiple similar lines with different values under different xml tags.

Code:
cat > file.txt
<xml>
<a>
dict=/dictr/abcd/d1/wq:/dictr/abcd/d2/wq:/dictr/abcd/d3/wq:
</a>
<b>
dict=/dictr/abcd/d1/wqa:/dictr/abcd/d2/wqb:/dictr/abcd/d3/wqc:
</b>
</xml>

Some how i managed to attain the desired results...
