How to replace html content inside html using c# - Asp.net

This example demonstrate how to replace HTML element content (innerHtml) using c#. I have used regular expressions to match elements. However this example does not support nested eleements:
private string ReplaceElements(string html)
{
    string patten = @"<\s*div[^>]*>(.*?)<\s*/div\s*>";
    string wrapper = @"<div class=""Highlighter"">{0}</div>";
    MatchCollection collection = Regex.Matches(html, patten);
    foreach (Match match in collection)
    {
        string value = match.Value;
        int marker = value.IndexOf(">");
        string innterHtml = value.Substring(marker + 1, value.Length - (marker + 7));
        if (Regex.Match(innterHtml, patten).Success)
            innterHtml = this.ReplaceElements(innterHtml);
        string wrappedText = string.Format(wrapper, innterHtml);
        string modifiedValue = value.Replace(innterHtml, wrappedText);
        html = html.Replace(value, modifiedValue);
    }
    return html;
}
protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
    string html = @"
        <html>
            <head>
                <title>Test Page</title>
                <style>
                    div.Highlighter { border:solid 1px #f00; margin:10px; }
                </style>
            </head>
            <body>
                <div class=""Div""><p>Hello World</p></div>
                <div class=""Div"" runat=""server"">Div 1</div>
                <div class=""Div"" id=""LoginId"">Div 2</div>
                <div class=""Div"" width=""50%"">Div 3</div>
                <div class=""Div"">Div 4</div>
            </body>
        </html>
    ";
    writer.Write("<h1>Before</h1>");
    writer.Write("<hr />");
    writer.Write(html);
    writer.Write("<h1>After</h1>");
    writer.Write("<hr />");
    html = this.ReplaceElements(html);
    writer.Write(html);
}
