How to extract text from above HTML. I tried following XPath for extract text

1. '//*[@class=“job-description”]'

2. //[@id=“main”]/div/div/div[1]/div[1]/div/div[2]/div[2]//text()

3. //[@id=“main”]//div[@class=“job-description”]/'
4. //div[@class=“job-description”]/p/text()
5. '//div[@class="job-description"]/following-sibling::node()/descendant-or-self::text()'

6.'//div[@class="job-description"]/p/descendant-or-self::text()'

But Didn't get Output can anyone please tell me how to scrape this information because it has multiple {p} tags, (ul} tags inside class.

so now I am confuse how to get information.

Thanks in Advance

Answer 1

It's not really very clear what it is you want, but it sounds like you want an XPath query that gives you all the text nodes. That you can do like this:

/descendant::text()

Answer 2

I resolved this problem from following Answer:

I just put following xpath: //*[contains(@class,"job-description")]/descendant::text()

Thanks for you comment @Lars Marius Garshol.
