any help will be great

thanks,
 
I would search the web for regex and html tags. I'm sure there are a number of examples. then it's just a matter of tweaking the regex to match what you need.

Looks like I was wrong :) regex isn't the way to go

So with that you would either:
1. use a 3rd party html parser
2. if you know the html is properly formatted. load it into a xmlreader, navigate the nodes you require, and perform the necessary operations.

I'm still un able to do that
you mind to share some sample
thanks,
 
I need to delete any <li>....</li> taq that contain
<label>Real Time Payment Assurance</label>

I couldn't find the right solution
please help
 
what are you unable to do? what have you tried? what is not yielding the expected results?

I would approach it this way:
assuming the html is properly formatted xml
1. load the text into an xml reader
2. read the nodes into an xmlwriter
3. read each node
4. skip over the nodes you don't want
5. use the result of the xmlwriter for the processing needs you have.

another option is to load the text into an XmlDocument, manipulate the document and then use the results of the manipulation. very similar to the first option, except the first option uses immutable objects and is forward-only operations.

you may also be able to use Linq2Xml and avoid the .net Xml documents all together.
