Question
Input
<html><body><p>foo <a href='http://www.example.com'>bar</a> baz</p></body></html>
Output
foo
bar
baz
I know of htmldoc.DocumentNode.InnerText, but it will give foobarbaz - I want to get each text, not all at a time.
Accepted Answer
var root = doc.DocumentNode;
var sb = new StringBuilder();
foreach (var node in root.DescendantNodesAndSelf())
{
if (!node.HasChildNodes)
{
string text = node.InnerText;
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(text))
sb.AppendLine(text.Trim());
}
}
This does what you need, but I am not sure if this is the best way. Maybe you should iterate through something other than DescendantNodesAndSelf for optimal performance.

XPATH is your friend :)
HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlDocument();
doc.LoadHtml(@"<html><body><p>foo <a href='http://www.example.com'>bar</a> baz</p></body></html>");
foreach(HtmlNode node in doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//text()"))
{
Console.WriteLine("text=" + node.InnerText);
}
