Hi,
I had tried the following code but it has not not worked, seems it is not supported full Xpath, please check and let me know if I am doing any thing wrong:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlWeb web = new HtmlWeb();
HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument doc = web.Load(“http://www.google.com”);
//doc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode(“//*[@id=\"lst-ib\"]“);//(“/html/body/div[2]/form/div/div[2]/table/tbody/tr/td/table/tbody/tr/td/div/table/tbody/tr/td/table/tbody/tr/td[2]/div/input”);
//System.Console.WriteLine(doc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode(“//*[@id=\"lst-ib\"]“).Id);
foreach (HtmlNode link in doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes(“/html/body/div[2]/form/div”))
{
HtmlAttribute att = link.Attributes["id"];

System.Console.Write(att.Value);

}
System.Console.ReadKey();

}

Why do I get a NullReferenceException?
I’m still not convinced.

@Aditya , I don't thinks you should load any remote HTML using the Agility Pack. Use HttpWebRequest Class to get the url content and then parse it with Agility Pack.

@Bill Hi, Bill Use : doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//form[@id='form2']/input"), but don't forget to check if the result isn't null before executing foreach

How to get all input elements in form2 of below html file? I tried: HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlDocument(); doc.Load(@"D:\test.html"); foreach (HtmlNode node in doc.GetElementbyId("form2").SelectNodes(".//input")) { Console.WriteLine(node.Attributes["value"].Value); } But no luck. Anything I did wrong?
