Q.Z.

Hello,

Does anybody know is there a .NET or COM based library to
parse HTML or convert html to xml so I can use xpath to
parse it?

Thanks

Hi Q.Z,


Thank you for using Microsoft Newsgroup Service. Based on your description,
you are looking for some COM or dotnet components which can convert the
html document into XML (XHTML) style document. Is my understanding correct?

If so, I think Ken Cox've provided some good sites on this topic, they
shows two components of COM. You may have a try on them to see whether they
help.

If you load you page to WebBrowser control you can parse you page using DOM,
this is work slow, but works.

I have tried the SgmlReader but am having difficultly with some sites, such as www.msn.com

If I could find a way to do parsing on HTML using C/C++/C# I would be happy. All I really
need is a way to have an array of <tag> and <data>. Finer grainularity is not necessary. Just
the raw information. I do need the entire page though from opening <html>
