I have tried the SgmlReader but am having difficultly with some sites, such as www.msn.com

If I could find a way to do parsing on HTML using C/C++/C# I would be happy. All I really
need is a way to have an array of <tag> and <data>. Finer grainularity is not necessary. Just
the raw information. I do need the entire page though from opening <html> to the closing </html>.

I would prefer an HTML to XML conversion, but as time is limited, any solution would be
appreciated.

Thanks,
Dave
