Finding specific class in HTML using C# and getting its value

I'm trying to download an entire HTML page like following:

var html = new WebClient().DownloadString("http://mypage.com/");

and this HTML document contains a class like this:

<span class="mem_loc">United States</span>

Like this literally...

I need to find somehow now this class mem_loc and it's value , which is United states or any other country...

Is there any "easy" way that this could be done in C# ?

P.S. The structure of the Tag is always like this , so I can probably search it through the string or somehow?

P.S. I want to fetch only whats between > < values, which is a country name...

One way to achieve this is to use an HTML parser. For example HTML agility pack is one such tool. It allows you to do this:

var result = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//span[@class='mem_loc']"));
