how to access child node from node in htmlagility pack
<html>
<body>
<div class="main">
<div class="submain"><h2></h2><p></p><ul></ul>
</div>
<div class="submain"><h2></h2><p></p><ul></ul>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
I loaded the html into an HtmlDocument. Then I selected the XPath as submain. Then I dont know how to access to each tags i.e h2, p separately.
HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlNodeCollection nodes = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//div[@class=\"submain\"]");
foreach (HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlNode node in nodes) {}
If I Use node.InnerText I get all the texts and InnerHtml is also not useful. How to select separate tags?
Answer
The following will help:
HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlNodeCollection nodes = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//div[@class=\"submain\"]");
foreach (HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlNode node in nodes) {
//Do you say you want to access to <h2>, <p> here?
//You can do:
HtmlNode h2Node = node.SelectSingleNode("./h2"); //That will get the first <h2> node
HtmlNode allH2Nodes= node.SelectNodes(".//h2"); //That will search in depth too
//And you can also take a look at the children, without using XPath (like in a tree):
HtmlNode h2Node = node.ChildNodes["h2"];
}
