Question
I am using the Html Agility pack. When the Load method of HtmlDocument class is passed the URL like "http://www.stackoverflow.com" it says the URI is not in correct format.
doc.Load(TextBoxUrl.Text, Encoding.UTF8 );
the url I try is this http://www.stackoverflow.com/questions/846994/how-to-use-html-agility-pack
Accepted Answer
HAP can not load from url, only from file or from a string. Use WebClient or HttpWebRequest to get the page.
For example:
HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument();
using (var wc = new WebClient())
{
doc.LoadHtml(wc.DownloadString(TextBoxUrl.Text));
}
