HtmlAgilityPack select nodes on first level
html-agility-pack
Question
Consider the following HTML
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>2</td>
<td>
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>3</td>
<td>4</td>
</tr>
<tbody>
</table>
</td>
<td>5</td>
</tr>What I want here is to take all <td> elements which are direct descendants to the main <tr> row.
Which means, I want to take 1, 2 and 5.
The code I am using
gridRow.Descendants("td")
will return all <td> elements below the main <tr> node.
Does HtmlAgilityPack provide the functionality to get first level descendants (because I can't find such method) ?
Accepted Answer
HtmlNode.Elements("child_name") is exactly what you are looking for :
gridRow.Elements("td")
Popular Answer
Ok, I think this will work:
gridRow.Descendants("td").Where(x => x.ParentNode == gridRow)
This will return all <td> elements, whose direct parent is the main <tr> element.
