If you are doing this in code behind, which is what I perceive to be the case, try someting like:

    var last = htmlString.LastIndexOf("<li>");
    htmlString = htmlString.Remove(last, 4).Insert(last, "<li class=\"last\"");

string data = ...;
string toReplace ="<li>";
string toPlace = "<li class=\"last\">";
int idx = data.LastIndexOf(toReplace);
data = data.Remove(idx, toReplace.Length).Insert(idx, toPlace);
