Best Lightweight HTML Parser for Delphi

Question

I need to parse out the values from some data from select boxes.

Example: <option value="1">Apple</option><option value="2">Chicken</option>

Usage: If option = apple then get value.

Any suggestions?

Answer 1

DIHtmlParser? I'm not sure how "lightweight" it is, but Ralf's components always seemed to be well put together. He's also normally active and response on Embarcadero's Forums.

If it's a one-off and not too complex, you could probably split on symbols manually.

Answer 2

Another option would be the standard XML Parsers...that is if your document meets the XHTML standards.
