Question
I don't like some of the design decisions made in HtmlAgilityPack:
- When using
SelectNodes, if no nodes are found, it returnsnullrather than an empty set, so you can't justforeachover it without a null check. - When trying to select children with
node.SelectNodesit actually searches from the document root unless you usedescendant::which is not obvious nor expected behavior at all, IMO. HtmlDocument.Loaddoesn't return the root node, which is what you'd want 99% of the time, I think
You might disagree with that of course, but that's not the point. I'm looking for something different. Something that behaves a little more expected, or something that uses jQuery syntax would be even better. Suggestions?

Update: I'm not maintaining this project, sorry. CsQuery has recent updates (as of July 2013), but I don't have any experience using it.
