Try using Jquery ..

XML

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
    <title></title>
    <script src="jquery-1.10.2.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">

        $(function () {

            var contents = $('#divContainer p').eq(0).text();
            alert(contents);

        });






    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div id="divContainer">
        <p>

Hi Prabu,

You could try this

XML

string input = @"<p>You should step up and use some of this amazing energy to take action -- the world needs what you've got! It's a really good day for some parties, startups and other fun things that just need some initiative.</p><p>More horoscopes! Check your , , , , , ...</p><p>Today's Free Sample Reading: </p><p></p>";

string[] output = input.Split(new string[] {"</p>"}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
output[0] += "</p>";

Now in output[0] you will get

<p>You should step up and use some of this amazing energy to take action -- the world needs what you've got! It's a really good day for some parties, startups and other fun things that just need some initiative.</p>

Hope this helps you a bit.

Hi Prabu,

You could try this

XML

string input = @"<p>You should step up and use some of this amazing energy to take action -- the world needs what you've got! It's a really good day for some parties, startups and other fun things that just need some initiative.</p><p>More horoscopes! Check your , , , , , ...</p><p>Today's Free Sample Reading: </p><p></p>";

string[] output = input.Split(new string[] {"</p>"}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
<pre>output[0] += "</p>";
</pre>

Now in output[0] you will get "<code><p>You should step up and use some of this amazing energy to take action -- the world needs what you've got! It's a really good day for some parties, startups and other fun things that just need some initiative.</code>

Hope this helps you a bit.

Hi,
try this.

C#

string value = "<p>You should step up and use some of this amazing energy to take action -- the 
                world needs what you've got! It's a really good day for some parties, startups and 
                other fun things that just need some initiative.</p><p>More horoscopes! Check your 
                , , , , , ...</p><p>Today's Free Sample Reading: </p><p></p>";

string[] spltvalue = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Split(value,"</p>");
string finalstringvalue = spltvalue[0] + "</p>";

hope it helps you.
