Question

I want to be able to get 2 links from inside a div.

Currently I can select one but whene there's more it doesn't seem to work.

HtmlWeb web = new HtmlWeb();
        HtmlDocument doc = web.Load(url);

HtmlNode node = doc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//div[@class='myclass']");

            if (node != null)
            {
                foreach (HtmlNode type in node.SelectNodes("//a@href"))
                {
                    recipe.type += type.InnerText;
                }
            }
            else
                recipe.type = "Error fetching type.";

Trying to get it from this piece of HTML:

<div class="myclass">
<h3>Not Relevant Header</h3>
    <a href="#">This text</a>, 
    <a href="#">and this text</a>
</div>

Any help is appreciated, Thanks in advance.

Use this XPath:

//div[@class = 'myclass']//a

It grabs all descendant a elements in div with class = 'myclass'.

And //a@href is incorrect XPath.

var div = doc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//div[@class='myclass']");
if(div!=null)
{
     var links = div.Descendants("a")
                    .Select(a => a.InnerText)
                    .ToList();
}
