How can I replace the <opt> tag in XML::Simple with the original tag name?

Question

I'm using XML::Simple to edit an XML file. After which the updated data is sent to a new XML file. But this procedure produces <opt></opt> tag to be added and the original parent tag is lost. I want to replace <opt> with the original tag name. How do I do that?

You're stretching the limits of XML::Simple. When you get to the point where you don't like exactly what it does, it's time for something else. What that something else is depends on your problem, but I like XML::Twig.
