How to Use CSS Selectors in C#
Using Aspose.HTML for the .NET API , you can easily create your own application because our API provides a powerful set of tools for parsing and gathering information from HTML documents. An important part of every extraction tool is the data selectors that are used to find the data you want to extract from the HTML file – usually XPath selectors, CSS selectors, or both.
In the following example, we use the QuerySelectorAll() method for navigation through an HTML document and search the needed elements. This method takes as a parameter the query selector and returns a NodeList of all the elements, which match the specified selector.
