        string div = "<table><tr><td>Hello</td></tr></table>"; // It should return only 'Hello

        var doc = new XmlDocument();
        doc.LoadXml(div);
        string text = doc.InnerText;

Do you also need the Jquery version of this?

If you are sure that the HTML won't change between the string you want to get, you can simply do a Substring between the two constants string and you will get your string into your variable.

        const string prefix = "<table>";
        const string suffix = "</table>";
        string s = prefix + "TEST" + suffix ;
        string s2 = s.Substring(prefix.Length, s.IndexOf(suffix, StringComparison.Ordinal) - prefix.Length);

Here is the Regex version:

        const string prefix = "<table>";
        const string suffix = "</table>";
        string s = prefix + "TEST" + suffix;
        string s2 = Regex.Match(s, prefix + "(.*)" + suffix).Groups[1].Value;
