Can anyone recommend a C or Objective-C library for HTML parsing? It needs to handle messy HTML code that won’t quite validate.

Does such a library exist, or am I better off just trying to use regular expressions?

  1. Looks like libxml2.2 comes in the SDK, and libxml/HTMLparser.h claims the following:

    This module implements an HTML 4.0 non-verifying parser with API compatible with the XML parser ones. It should be able to parse ‘real world’ HTML, even if severely broken from a specification point of view.

    That sounds like what I need, so I’m probably going to use that.
