  What am I doing wrong with the following code in trying to find the table node?

  Jun 30, 2012 11:54 AM|LINK

  The html code I am trying to screen scrape is:

  <div id="box_3"  class="Box1">
          <div  id="box_3Top" class="Box1 th">
               Information
          </div>
          <div class="cb">
          </div>
          <table class="full Table">
                    <tr class="nob">
                       <td class="bold bordb bluef"> Name</td>
                    </tr>
          </table>
      </div>

   

  Code trying to scan table with class full Table.

   For Each div As HtmlNode In doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//div[contains(@class, 'Box1')]")
                      For Each table As HtmlNode In div.SelectNodes("table[contains(@class, 'full Table')]")

  
  I get passed the first For Each to look for the table, but I get an error on For Each table as HtmlNode In div.SelectNodes...

  it says that object doesn't exist.

  What am I doing wrong?

  For Each div As HtmlNode In doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("/div[contains(@class, 'Box1')]")
                      For Each table As HtmlNode In div.SelectNodes("/table[contains(@class, 'full Table')]")
