I'm looking for pure Ruby (or Java) solutions for beautifying HTML code. I'm currently using Hpricot to parse HTML, since Nokogiri and other HTML parsers require external C programs. I assume that I can use Hpricot to clean up HTML if I can come up with a good algorithm. I'd prefer not to reinvent if this has already been done. ...
Hi I have such files to parse (from scrapping) with Python: some HTML and JS here... SomeValue = { 'calendar': [ { 's0Date': new Date(2010, 9, 12), 'values': [ { 's1Date': new Date(2010, 9, 17), 'price': 9900 }, { 's1Date': new Date(2010, 9, 18), 'price': 9900 }, ...
Im working on a system that requires the parsing of HTML documents under PHP. my question is simply this: What's the best method of parsing content for relative information. When I parse a site I don't want random content I want to find relevant content such as blocks of text, images, links etc. but obviously I don't want header links...
I'm using libxml2 to parse HTML. The HTML might look like this: <div> Some very very long text here. </div> I want to insert a child node, e.g. a header, in before the text, like this: <div> <h3> Some header here </h3> Some very very long text here. </div> Unfortunately, libxml2 always adds my header after t...
Let's say there is a blog entry, which you have the HTML for, it looks like this: <h1>Hi</h1> <img src="http://thesource.com/someImage.gif"/> <p>And just a little more text, with a </p> If you use the graph API to send this to Facebook, the message will look exactly as it appears above. I'm using HTMLCleaner in order to clea...
First time working with the HTMLParser module. Trying to use standard string formatting on the ouput, but it's giving me an error. The following code: import urllib2 from HTMLParser import HTMLParser class LinksParser(HTMLParser): def __init__(self, url): HTMLParser.__init__(self) req = urllib2.urlopen(url) ...
Somewhat related to my earlier question. I'm making a simple html parser to play around with in Python 2.7. I would like to have multiple parse types, IE can parse for links, script tags, images, ect. I'm using the HTMLParser module, so my initial thoughts were just make a separate class for each thing I want to parse. But that seemed ra...

Working with HTML Agility Pack in C#. Running the following code on a site I know should return some values keeps coming up blank.

I am working with a large set of html documents. One of my tasks is to extract all text from the documents. I have gotten pretty far but now I am stumped because of the use of tables as containers / formatting structures for information that is not numeric in nature My goal is to ignore - leave behind - not extract the 'table' if it i...
Link to truncated version of example document I'm trying to extract the large chunk of text in the last "pre", process it, and output it. For the purposes of argument, let's say I want to apply concatMap (unwords . take 62 . drop 11) . lines to the text and output it. This takes over 400M of space on a 4M html document when I do it....
When trying Hpricot and Nokogiri, the HTML can be fetched and parsed, but can they also execute the Javascript as well so that the content shows on the page? (shows up in the the DOM). That's because some page won't show the info unless the Javascript interpreter has run. ...

Working on Android SDK, it's Java minus some things. I have a solution that pulls out two regex patterns from web pages. The problems I'm having is that it's finding things inside HTML tags. I tried jTidy, but it was just too slow on the Android. Not sure why but my Scanner regex match solution whips it many times over. currently, I g...

I would like to get the text representation of a website in a human-readable form, for example hyperlink locations or input fields. Is there any library that does this? (I've checked Jericho Renderer but it does not show input fields) For example <div> <form action="example.php"> Name: <input type="text" name="name_field"> <input type="...
Suppose I have this sort of HTML from which I need to select "text2" using lxml / ElementTree: <div>text1<span>childtext1</span>text2<span>childtext2</span>text3</div> If I already have the div element as mydiv, then mydiv.text returns just "text1". Using itertext() seems problematic or cumbersome at best since it walks the entire tr...
Hi experts, I'm new to Perl-HTML things. I'm trying to fetch both the texts and links from a HTML table. Here is the HTML structure: <td>Td-Text <br> <a href="Link-I-Want" title="title-I-Want">A-Text</a> </td> I've figured out that WWW::Mechanize is the easiest module to fetch things I need from the <a> part, but I'm not su...
========================================================================= EDIT: I'm using node.js, so I don't have access to the DOM, and parsing with an HTML parser is not an option (it's not efficient enough to justify parsing through such a small amount of text) =======================================================================...
