    copied!<p>I have trying to get around making my first C# application(that can do more than just say "Hello world"),</p> <p>now the html file got lots of tags,(but got only two h4 tags that are given below.) but here is the part that i am interested in: </p> <pre><code>&lt;table width="100%" height="400" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bordercolor="#111111" background="images/page_bg.gif" style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse"&gt; &lt;tbody valign="top"&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;table width="80%" border="0" valign=top background="images/page_bg.gif"&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;h4 align="center"&gt; &lt;font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"&gt; &lt;b&gt; &lt;font size="4" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt; UNWANTED TEXT &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h4&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Name : {NAME HERE} &lt;br&gt;Number : {NUMBERS HERE}&lt;br&gt;Number2 : {NUMBERS2}&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;h4&gt;UNWANTED TEXT&lt;/h4&gt;&lt;br&gt;detail NO. : &lt;span class=style7&gt;{NUmbers3}&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=http://test.xom&gt;UNWANTED TEXT&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="content"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; </code></pre> <p>I wish to get NAME,Numbers1,Numbers2,Numbers3, So, i guess i got to do something like this =</p> <pre><code> //div[@align = "centre"]/h4/followingsibling::Text(); </code></pre> <p>but surely it is incomplete, any ideas on how should i do it, I got the Xpath from firebug : <code>/html/body/table/tbody/tr[2]/td/table/tbody/tr/td/table/tbody/tr[2]/td/div/table/tbody/tr/td/table/tbody/tr/td/div/h4</code></p> <p>i have also tried doing(for just getting the raw data first and then trimming it further)</p> <pre><code> HtmlNodeCollection node = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//table[@height='400']//div[@align='centre']"//p); foreach(HtmlNode node1 in node) textBox1.Text += node1.InnerText; </code></pre> <p>But the Node here is passed on as NULL Any help is greatly appreciated.</p>
