Question

I need to load HTML and parse it, I think that it should be something simple, I pass a string with a “HTML” it reads the string in a Dom like object, so I can search and parse the content of the HTML, facilitating scraping and things like that.

Do you guys know about any thing like that.

Thanks

HTML Agility Pack

Similar API to XmlDocument, for example (from the examples page):

 HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlDocument();
 doc.Load("file.htm");
 foreach(HtmlNode link in doc.DocumentElement.SelectNodes("//a[@href"])
 {
    HtmlAttribute att = link["href"];
    att.Value = FixLink(att);
 }
 doc.Save("file.htm");

(you should also be able to use LoadHtml to load a string of html, rather than from a path)
