Hello All,

I have a string

<div dir="ltr">Test Mail 1 Body<br></div>

and now i want to remove only

<div dir="ltr">

Output should be

Test Mail 1 Body

Unable to remove, can anybody please help me?

What I have tried:

string str = body.Replace("<div dir="ltr>"", " ");

I am getting error that ltr name does not exist in current context.

Solution 2

string inputText = "<div dir=\"ltr\">Test Mail 1 Body<br></div>";
       string pattern = "<div dir=\"ltr\">(.*)</div>";
       Regex regex = new Regex(pattern);
       var matches = regex.Match(inputText);
       string text = matches.Groups[1].ToString();
       text = text.Replace("<br>", "");

just curious, what if the body content look like

before ltr <div dir=\"ltr\">Test Mail 1 Body<br></div> after ltr <div>div without ltr</div> after div
