Is it possible to do a regex replace on all IMG tags that are unclosed? If so, how would I identify:

  <img src="..." alt="...">

...as a potential canidate to be replaced?

   = <img src="..." alt="..."/>

Update: We have hundreds of pages, and thousands of image tags, all must of which must be closed. I'm not stuck on RegEx -- any other method, aside from manually updating all IMG tags, would suffice.
