Modifying HTML strings in C#?

Question

In my MVC solution, I have an HTML string and want to search for comment nodes and replace them based on their content.

How can I do this?

Thank you.

EDIT: The language is C#. The HTML string is e.g. "<div id='id1'>blahblah</div><!-- comment1 count='10' length='200' --><p>show real comment content before this paragraph.</p>". I need to get the comment block and then generate real content based on the count and length attributes.

Because of the complexity of HTML you should really use a rich library to help you.

I highly recommend HTMLAgility, you could then follow the advice from this post to work towards achieving your goal.
