regex - Perl replace nested blocks regular expression

I need to get the nested blocks in hash array or hash tree to be able to substitute the blocks with dynamic contents. I need to replace the code between

<!--block:XXX-->

and the first closing end block

<!--endblock--> 

with my dynamic content.

I have this code that finds one level comments blocks but not nested:

#<!--block:listing-->... html code block here ...<!--endblock-->
$blocks{$1} = $2 while $content =~ /<!--block:(.*?)-->((?:(?:(?!<!--(.*?)-->).)|(?R))*?)<!--endblock-->/igs;

Here is the complete nested html template that I want to process. So I need to find and replace the inner block "block:third" and replace it with my content , then find "block:second" and replace it then find the outer block "block:first" and replace it. Please note that, there can be any number of nested blocks and not just three like the example below, it could be several nested blocks.

use Data::Dumper;

$content=<<HTML;
some html content here

<!--block:first-->
    some html content here

    <!--block:second-->
        some html content here

        <!--block:third-->
            some html content here
        <!--endblock-->

        some html content here
    <!--endblock-->

    some html content here
<!--endblock-->
HTML

$blocks{$1} = $2 while $content =~ /<!--block:(.*?)-->((?:(?:(?!<!--(.*?)-->).)|(?R))*?)<!--endblock-->/igs;
print Dumper(%blocks);

So I can access and modify the blocks like $block{first} = "my content here" and $block{second} = "another content here" etc then replace the blocks.

I created this regex

Update:

This is a response to the "combining" into a single regex...

It appears you don't care about reconstructing the order of the html.
So, if you just want to isolate the content for each sub-section, the below is all you need.
However, you will need lists ( [] ) to reconstitute the order of embedded sub-sections.

After refreshing myself with this question, note that the regex used below is the one you should be using.

use Data::Dumper;

$/ = undef;
my $content = <DATA>;


my $href = {};

ParseCore( $href, $content );

#print Dumper($href);

print "
Base======================
";
print $href->{content};
print "
First======================
";
print $href->{first}->{content};
print "
Second======================
";
print $href->{first}->{second}->{content};
print "
Third======================
";
print $href->{first}->{second}->{third}->{content};
print "
Fourth======================
";
print $href->{first}->{second}->{third}->{fourth}->{content};
print "
Fifth======================
";
print $href->{first}->{second}->{third}->{fourth}->{fifth}->{content};

exit;

sub ParseCore
{
    my ($aref, $core) = @_;
    my ($k, $v);
    while ( $core =~ /(?is)(<!--block:(.*?)-->((?:(?:(?!<!--block:(?:.*?)-->).)|(?R))*?)<!--endblock-->|((?:(?!<!--block:.*?-->).)+))/g )
    {
       if (defined $2) {
           $k = $2; $v = $3;
           $aref->{$k} = {};
 #         $aref->{$k}->{content} = $v;
 #         $aref->{$k}->{match} = $1;

           my $curraref = $aref->{$k};
           my $ret = ParseCore($aref->{$k}, $v);
           if (defined $ret) {
               $curraref->{'#next'} = $ret;
           }
        }
        else
        {
           $aref->{content} .= $4;
        }
    }
    return $k;
}

You can use REGEX recursion to match outter nesting's, then parse the inner CORE's
using a simple recursive function call.

Then its also possible to parse content on the nesting level that you are on.
Its also possible to create a nested structure along the way to enable you to later
do the template substitutions.

You can then reconstruct the html.
The only tricky part is traversing the array. But, if you know how to traverse
array's (scalars, array/hash ref's, and such) it should be no problem.

Here is the sample.

    # (?is)<!--block:(.*?)-->((?:(?:(?!<!--(?:.*?)-->).)|(?R))*?)<!--endblock-->|((?:(?!<!--.*?-->).)+)

    (?is)                         # Modifiers: Case insensitive, Dot-all
    <!--block:                    # Begin BLOCK
    ( .*? )                       # (1), block name
    -->

    (                             # (2 start), Begin Core
         (?:
              (?:
                   (?!
                        <!--
                        (?: .*? )
                        -->
                   )
                   . 
              )
           |  (?R) 
         )*?
    )                             # (2 end), End Core

    <!--endblock-->               # End BLOCK
 |  
    (                             # (3 start), Or grab content within this core
         (?:
              (?! <!-- .*? --> )
              . 
         )+
    )                             # (3 end)

Perl test case

use Data::Dumper;

$/ = undef;
my $content = <DATA>;


my %blocks = ();
$blocks{'base'} = [];


ParseCore( $blocks{'base'}, $content );


sub ParseCore
{
    my ($aref, $core) = @_;
    while ( $core =~ /(?is)<!--block:(.*?)-->((?:(?:(?!<!--(?:.*?)-->).)|(?R))*?)<!--endblock-->|((?:(?!<!--.*?-->).)+)/g )
    {
        if ( defined $1 )
        {
           my $branch = {};
           push @{$aref}, $branch;
           $branch->{$1} = [];
           ParseCore( $branch->{$1}, $2 );
        }
        elsif ( defined $3 )
        {
           push @{$aref}, $3;
        }
    }

}

print Dumper(\%blocks);
