I am trying to convert the webpage into a plain text. But if I encountered the table I am getting td and tr tags too. If I replace those table tags then I can’t get some of the content.

Here is my code

string s = Regex.Replace(htmldoc, "<script.*?</script>", "", RegexOptions.Singleline | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
s = Regex.Replace(s, "<!--.*?-->", "", RegexOptions.Singleline | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
s = Regex.Replace(s, "<style.*?style>", "", RegexOptions.Singleline | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
s = Regex.Replace(s, "<a.*?a>", "", RegexOptions.Singleline | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
s = Regex.Replace(s, "<img.*?img>", "", RegexOptions.Singleline | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
s = Regex.Replace(s, "<table.*?table>", "", RegexOptions.Singleline | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument();
doc.LoadHtml(s);
s = doc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//body").InnerText.Trim();

Please check it and tell me how can I get the contents from table without getting td and tr tags.
