Html Agility Pack

  

这是一个敏捷的HTML解析器,它构建一个读/写DOM并支持普通的XPATH或XSLT(你实际上不需要理解XPATH或XSLT来使用它,不用担心......)。它是一个.NET代码库,允许您解析“out of the web”HTML文件。解析器非常容忍“真实世界”格式错误的HTML。对象模型与提出System.Xml非常类似,但对于HTML文档(或流)。

您可以使用TidyNet.Tidy将HTML转换为XHTML,然后使用XML解析器。

另一种选择是使用内置引擎mshtml:

using mshtml;
...
object[] oPageText = { html };
HTMLDocument doc = new HTMLDocumentClass();
IHTMLDocument2 doc2 = (IHTMLDocument2)doc;
doc2.write(oPageText);

这允许您使用类似javascript的函数,如getElementById()

我找到了一个名为Fizzler的项目,该项目采用jQuery / Sizzler方法来选择HTML元素。它基于HTML Agility Pack。它目前处于测试阶段并且只支持CSS选择器的一个子集,但是使用CSS选择器而不是令人讨厌的XPath非常酷且令人耳目一新。

你可以在第三方产品和mshtml(即互操作)上坚持不懈。使用System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser。从那里,您可以在HtmlDocument上执行“GetElementById”或在HtmlElements上执行“GetElementsByTagName”。如果你想与浏览器实际交互(例如模拟按钮点击),你可以使用一点反射(imo比Interop更小的邪恶)来做到这一点:

var wb = new WebBrowser()

...告诉浏览器导航(与此问题相关)。然后在Document_Completed事件上,您可以模拟这样的点击。

var doc = wb.Browser.Document
var elem = doc.GetElementById(elementId);
object obj = elem.DomElement;
System.Reflection.MethodInfo mi = obj.GetType().GetMethod("click");
mi.Invoke(obj, new object[0]);

你可以做类似的反思事情来提交表格等。

享受。

我编写了一些提供“LINQ to HTML”功能的代码。我想我会在这里分享一下。它基于Majestic 12.它采用Majestic-12结果并生成LINQ XML元素。此时,您可以使用针对HTML的所有LINQ to XML工具。举个例子:

        IEnumerable<XNode> auctionNodes = Majestic12ToXml.Majestic12ToXml.ConvertNodesToXml(byteArrayOfAuctionHtml);

        foreach (XElement anchorTag in auctionNodes.OfType<XElement>().DescendantsAndSelf("a")) {

            if (anchorTag.Attribute("href") == null)
                continue;

            Console.WriteLine(anchorTag.Attribute("href").Value);
        }

我想使用Majestic-12,因为我知道它有很多关于HTML的内置知识。我发现,将Majestic-12结果映射到LINQ将接受的内容,因为XML需要额外的工作。我所包含的代码进行了大量的清理,但是当你使用它时,你会发现被拒绝的页面。您需要修复代码才能解决这个问题。抛出异常时,请检查exception.Data [“source”],因为它可能设置为导致异常的HTML标记。以一种不错的方式处理HTML有时候并不是微不足道的......

所以现在预期实际上很低,这是代码:)

之前已经提到过Html Agility Pack - 如果你想要速度,你可能还想看看the Majestic-12 HTML parser。它的处理相当笨重,但它提供了非常快速的解析体验。

解析HTML的麻烦在于它不是一门精确的科学。如果你正在解析它是XHTML,那么事情会容易得多(正如你所提到的,你可以使用一般的XML解析器)。因为HTML不一定是格式良好的XML,所以在尝试解析它时会遇到很多问题。它几乎需要在逐个站点的基础上完成。
