You can use the _StringBetween() function, like this,

#include <String.au3>
Local $sString = '<p>String i want to get<span class="street">String i want to get</span></p>', _
      $sVar1 = _StringBetween($sString, '<p>', '<span class="street">'), _
      $sVar2 = _StringBetween($sString, '<span class="street">', '</span></p>')
ConsoleWrite($sVar1[0] & @LF & $sVar2[0] & @LF)

Look in the Help File for more info, and another example.

if you want to go the xml parsing route, take the string of the xml, and pass it in:

$oXML=ObjCreate("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
$oXML.LoadXML('<p>String i want to geta<span class="street">String i want to getb</span></p>')
$result = $oXML.selectSingleNode('//p')
ConsoleWrite ( $result.childNodes.item(0).text & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite ( $result.childNodes.item(1).text & @CRLF)

output would be:

String i want to geta

String i want to getb

this works for html as well, but then again, you can use the _IE* functions, and .innertext to do the same
