Hi

I have the following markup...

<p>
<span>Some fixed text</span>
<span>Some random text</span>
<span>Some more fixed text</span>
</p>

I would like to extract either Some random text (which will be different every time) or all the inner text from the <p>, whichever's easier.

Is there a way I can do this? I can find the two fixed text spans easily, but can't see how to extract the random text from between them.

Thanks

Mike

Hi Mike,

Once you find the first span element you could find its next sibling with those lines of code:
HtmlSpan trouvableSpan = Find.ByContent<HtmlSpan>("Some fixed text");
 
Element randomSpan = trouvableSpan.BaseElement.GetNextSibling();

Hope this answers your question.
