Question

I am trying to parse a PHP page which contain many tables. Now when I try to select those tables, the collection return null?

    Dim web As New HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlWeb()
    Dim htmlDoc As HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument = web.Load("URL")
    Dim html As String

    Dim tabletag As HtmlNodeCollection = htmlDoc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//table")
    Dim tableNode As HtmlNode = htmlDoc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//table[@summary='List of services']")

    If Not tabletag Is Nothing Then
    html = tableNode.InnerText

    End If

This page certainly has some tables, Just dont understand why it returns null for it?

Answer 1

I loaded your URL up in a browser and viewed the source and there actually aren’t any tables that I could find. Wrong URL?
