CefSharp - Get Value of HTML Element

Question

How can I get the value of an HTML element with CefSharp?

I know how to do with this default WebBrowser Control:

Dim Elem As HtmlElement = WebBrowser

There is a really good example of how to do this in their FAQ.

Here is the code for the lazy. Pretty self explanatory and it worked well for me.

string script = string.Format("document.getElementById('startMonth').value;");
browser.EvaluateScriptAsync(script).ContinueWith(x =>
        {
            var response = x.Result;

            if (response.Success && response.Result != null)
            {
            var startDate = response.Result;
            //startDate is the value of a HTML element.
        }      
    });
