How to change XHTML closing tags automatically in Notepad++

问题

I apologize if this has been asked before, but I don't believe it's been clearly asked, causing a lot of confusion on stackoverflow....I'm using Notepad v6.6.9 and I am looking for way to automaticlaly change my closing element tags when I want to "later" change my opening element tags. For example if I have an XHTML page with the following content....

<p>hello world</p>

...and I save this page, and re-open it, and then click to change <p> to <h3>, I want notepad++ to automatically change my closing </p> element to </h3>

Another way to put it:

"As I am typing and changing the currently selected opening tag, I want the closing tag to automatically change during the same time."

Is this possible in Notepad++? If so, how?

Thanks

I'm not sure I fully understood your question but I'll try to answer it.

you can replace all your inside tags with notepad++ using this way:

1. click on CTRL+F to open the find pop up.
2. navigate to replace tab
3. for your example, Replace only the P inside the tags to make it h3.
4. Click Replace All.

This will replace all the P into h3 and keep your starting / ending tags unharmed.

Hope that was helpful.

EDIT: Based on my comment, below is my trick:

1. go to settings menu
2. click on preferences
3. select Auto-completion
4. check the html/ xml close tags

As I said, this will auto close the tags but I did not test it for auto changing closed tags.
