if i have:
<div>
<div id="start">
<div> this is a div which has several other divs inside it </div>
<div> this is a div which has several other divs inside it </div>
<div> this is a div which has several other divs inside it </div>
<div> this is a div which has several other divs inside it </div>
<div> this is a div which has several other divs inside it </div>
<div> this is a div which has several other divs inside it </div>
</div>
</div>
how would i find the end tag for <div id="start"> if i had a page that was full of divs. I know it is not that difficult to find but is there not an easy add on tool for this or is there not some other easy quik way of finding the a specific end tag
thanks in advance

thanks for your help Jason, this is very handy
Do a Find/Replace in source code mode for </
Alternately, you could do a Find/Replace in Specific Tag mode to select entire <div> blocks depending on your needs.
