xpath search for divs where the id contains specific text

Using HtmlAgilityPack, select just objects in a specified DIV.

This will work:...node.SelectNodes("a[@href]") ...Also, you can do it in a single selector:...doc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//div[@class='content']//a[@href]") ...Also, note that ...link.Value... isn't defined for ...HtmlNode..., so your code doesn't compile.

The inner text of any other child node is not searched for by XPath.

You need to use ...text()... to get text nodes. To get all text nodes in the document, use ...//text().......From the ...specification...:...text()... matches any text node.

Get particular content within a double div using the HTML Agility Pack.

var doc = new HtmlDocument(); doc.Load("test.htm"); var res = doc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//div[@class='myclass1']"); var firstDiv = res.SelectSingleNode("div"); var content1 = firstDiv.ChildNodes[0].InnerText.Trim(); var content2 = firstDiv.ChildNodes[2].InnerText.Trim(); var content4 = res.SelectSingleNode(".//div[@class='myclass2']") ...

To identify all elements with innertext containing a certain phrase or words, use Xpath and HtmlAgilityPack.

According to Xpath, if you want to find a specific keyword you need to follow the format ("keyword" is the word you like to search) : ...//*[text()[contains(., 'keyword')]]...You have to follow the same format as above in C#, ...keyword... is the string variable you call:...doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//*[text()[contains(., '" + keyword + "')]]")...

How to get text between two div tags with some class attribute with HTMLagility

have you tried using XPath for example if I wanated to find a if a node is selected in my example I would do the following ...string xpath = null; XmlNode configNode = configDom.DocumentElement; // collect selected nodes in node list XmlNodeList nodeList = configNode.SelectNodes(@"//*[@status='checked']"); ...in your case you would do the following...

Find the parent div of a specific text in a HTMLDocument

This would do it I think......var nodes2 = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//div[contains(.//text(), 'Hello World')]"); ...And this is probably an even better solution:...var nodes3 = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//text()[contains(., 'Hello World')]/ancestor::div[1]"); ...or use the Linq-to-XML notation:... var nodes = doc.Documen...

Selecting all nodes containing text with XPath

Instead of...:....//text() ...use...:....//*[normalize-space(text())] ...This selects all "leaf-elements"-descendants of the context (current) node that have at least one non-whitespace-only text node child.

Get all divs under a div with known ID and iterate over it

You forgot to select child divs:...HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlDocument(); doc.LoadHtml(matches); string matchResultDivId = "match_results"; string xpath = String.Format("//div[@id='{0}']/div", matchResultDivId); var people = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes(xpath).Select(p => p.InnerText); foreach(var person in people) Console.WriteLine(person); ...

Agility Pack Select SingleNode @id contains or @id is like

There are XPath functions ...contains()... and ...starts-with()..., exactly as you wish. Example usage of those functions :...string str1 = node.SelectSingleNode("//td[contains(@id, 'id_')]/span/text()") .InnerText; string str2 = node.SelectSingleNode("//td[starts-with(@id, 'id_')]/span/text()") .InnerText;

Html Agility Pack get specific content from a div

Another way would be using XPath .../text()[normalize-space()]... to get ...non-empty..., direct-child text nodes from the ...div... elements :...var divs = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//div[contains(@class,'article')]"); foreach (HtmlNode div in divs) { var node = div.SelectSingleNode("text()[normalize-space()]"); Console.WriteLine(node....
