If the the content is being fetched using AJAX and the return type is text that you are using to plop in as the inner-html for the div, than you should be able to parse through the text and push elements onto a stack when opening tags are encountered. Pop when closing tags are encountered. Any tags on the stack at the end of the input need closed.
