title: Notepad++ replace slashes with spaces between <Tags>1/2/3</Tags> Regex
body: <p>I have 1500+ xml files and need to change the content between a specific set of <code>&lt;tags&gt;&lt;/tags&gt;</code></p>
  
  <p><strong>My file currently looks like this (all squished)</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;actor&gt;Natalie Portman/Zooey Deschanel/James Franco/Danny McBride&lt;/actor&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>I want it to look like this (spaced apart)</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;actor&gt;Natalie Portman / Zooey Deschanel / James Franco / Danny McBride&lt;/actor&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>My search and replace efforts below</strong> </p>
  
  <pre><code>Find What: `&lt;actor&gt;(.*)/(.*)&lt;/actor&gt;`
  Replace with: &lt;actor&gt;(\1 \/ \2)&lt;/actor&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>My result only separates the last slash</strong> </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;actor&gt;Natalie Portman/Zooey Deschanel/James Franco / Danny McBride&lt;/actor&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>using a global search and replace of all slashes is not suitable as the xml file contain many slashes in the form of tag open/closes, xml declarations and general urls containg slashes;</p>
  
  <p><strong>see example below:</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>    &lt;genre&gt;Action&lt;/genre&gt;
      &lt;director&gt;David Gordon Green&lt;/director&gt;
      &lt;trailer&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FplWxtPzWY8&lt;/trailer&gt;
  &lt;/details&gt;
  </code></pre>
