Sound like:
$ grep 'string' *.html > string_match
might be the ticket. This will give you each line that contains the
string. If you really want to put only the remainder of the line in the
file you might pipe this through sed:
$ grep 'string' *.html | sed 's/.*string\(.*\)$/\1/' > string_match
Untested. . .
