Parsing HTML Reading Option Tag Content with HtmlAgillityPack

Question

I am trying to use HtmlAgilityPack to parse HTML, but am having problems.

Sample HTML Doc:

Answer 1

Your XPath expression:

//option

It's an absolute path: it traverse all the tree starting from the root.

You need a relative XPath expression:

descendant::option

Or the shorthand

.//option

Do note: this is the only case where to start a path with . (self::node() shorthand) is useful.
