Get div content by id

Question

I have a string that keeps entire html document. I would like to get all the content inside a div with specific id. For example:

<div id="myId" class = "myClass">

 <div class = "myClass">hello</div>

</div>

I need the content between the tag with id="myId" and it's closing tag.
Any way to achieve this? The output should be the second line.

The clean and correct way would be via an HTML parser, like HtmlAgilityPack:

string stringThatKeepsYourHtml = "<div id=....";
HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlDocument();
doc.LoadHtml(stringThatKeepsYourHtml);
string whatUrLookingFor = doc.GetElementbyId("myId").InnerHtml;
