I am new to the HtmlUtilityPack and am finding it very difficult to get at some data. Could someone please explain how I would capture these values from the html given below:

In "span itemprop='sku'", the number: 791-5971
In "span itemprop='name'", the string: Duracell
In "span itemprop='mpn'", the number: 5000394002906

Thank you.

<div class="keyDetailsDivLL">
    <ul class="keyDetailsLL">

        </li>
        <li>
            <span class="keyLabel">Brand</span>

Solution 2

you can do as below

C#

string skuval = htmlDoc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//span[@itemprop='sku']").InnerText;
string nameval = htmlDoc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//span[@itemprop='name']").InnerText;
string mpnval = htmlDoc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//span[@itemprop='mpn']").InnerText;

As is often the case, the process of phrasing the question led me to discover a solution:

HtmlNode spc = document.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//span[@itemprop='sku']");

HtmlNode manufacturer = document.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//span[@itemprop='name']");

HtmlNode mpn = document.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//span[@itemprop='mpn']");

However, I would still be interested in alternatives.

Thanks again.
