</tr>

<tr> 
<td>Nordkapp</td>
<td>02:44</td><td>04:14</td><td>13:47</td><td>18:27</td><td>23:10</td><td>00:40</td>

Add some root tag to this code, and you will get a well-formed XML. Let's say, you surround it with <table>… </table>. As soon as you do it, you can do whatever you want with any of the XML parsers bundled with .NET.

Here is my short overview of those parsers:

Use System.Xml.XmlDocument class. It implements DOM interface; this way is the easiest and good enough if the size if the document is not too big.
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.xmldocument.aspx[^].
Use the class System.Xml.XmlTextReader; this is the fastest way of reading, especially is you need to skip some data.
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.xmlreader.aspx[^].
Use the class System.Xml.Linq.XDocument; this is the most adequate way similar to that of XmlDocument, supporting LINQ to XML Programming.
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.xmldocument.aspx[^], http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb387063.aspx[^].

Good luck,

Solution 1

That's not XML. It's a fragment of HTML. The XML parser will not work with what you've posted as it is malformed for XML.

aha..ok thanks for the information :)

...that's correct, but you can slightly modify this HTML fragment (which is, out of valid context, is also not a valid HTML, as the element "table" is missing) to make it a well-formed XML. And then -- please see my answer.
