BeautifulSoup and ASP.NET/C#

I know this is quite old, but I decided to post this for future reference. I came across this searching for a similar solution.

I found a library built on top of Html Agility Pack called scrapysharp

I've used it in quite similar manner as I would BeautifulSoup https://bitbucket.org/rflechner/scrapysharp/wiki/Home (EDIT: broken link, project moved to https://github.com/rflechner/ScrapySharp)

EDIT: https://www.nuget.org/packages/ScrapySharp/ has the package

Html Agility Pack is a similar project, but for C# and .NET

EDIT:

To extract all readable text:

document.DocumentNode.InnerText

Note that this will return the text content of <script> tags.

To fix that, you can remove all of the <script> tags, like this:

foreach(var script in doc.DocumentNode.Descendants("script").ToArray())
    script.Remove();
foreach(var style in doc.DocumentNode.Descendants("style").ToArray())
    style.Remove();

You could try this although it currently has a few bugs:
