I am using following code, it replaces entities in whole html file.
But I want to replace only in between specified tags(i.e <div>......</div>)
please help me

{
                        FileInfo n = new FileInfo(inputpath);

                        string initContent = File.ReadAllText(file);

                    int contentLength = initContent.Length;
                        Matches m;

       while ((m = Regex.Matches(initContent, "[^a-zA-Z0-9<>=./\\s(&#\\d+;)-]")).Value != String.Empty)
       initContent = initContent.Remove(m.Index, 1).Insert(m.Index, string.Format("&#{0};", (int)m.Value[0]));

                        File.WriteAllText(outpath, initContent);
                    }

A sample of the beginning data and a sample of the desired ending data would be very helpful

The following is an example code. I want to replace entities in between <div>.....</div>
tags only

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

</head>
<body>
<div>
<h2 class="chapternumber"><small>SIX</small></h2>
<h2 class="chaptertitle">IS @ @ @ @ @ THERE A     N EVENT IN HEGEL?</h2>

What is the desired outcome you want from that sample. Saying "replace entities" doesn't say much

I want all entities such as Ã Ü é æ @ @ @ @ @ ^ ^ and so on ........ (any entity) in between <div> tags must be replaced with Entity Number (&#34;
&#39; &#38; &#60; &#62;)

Are you sure the code you provided is correct? It doesn't seem to be able to compile.

Member Avatar for bullet_1

The first provided code is in C# which replaces entities with entity number in a html file(provided second).The provided html file is input file in which changes has to be made

That much is obvious, but like I said the C# code doesn't compile
