Yes, it doesn't work, because your search string is "<mis>" and what the file contains is "<val:mis>" (and "<seg>" instead of "<val:seg>", etc.). It is rather obvious that you find only what you search for, nothing else. No?
But isn't it obvious how the command above must be changed to reflect the changes in your input? I am convinced that a brilliant young man like you can do that, can't you? Just show us what you tried.

Hi Bakunin,
I was using this command and was getting expected output. but then for few lines i found html tags contains some prefix as well.
So the prefix in few lines were different((like <s:mis> or <t:mis) ) but the parameter to grep is always same (mis or seg). I was trying to make the prefix optional using asterisk in command like this
but it seems asterisk cant be used inside html tags to make it optional or i am not aware of.

Thanks RudiC....This works perfectly but if sequence changes or any new element is there in lines that also gets printed. I was thinking of greping the specific parameter values (like mis, seg values) and for this i was using below command
To consider prefixes as well before mis or seg i was trying asterisk to make it optional but seems the way i am using is not correct.
Sequence or prefix may change this way.
