Hi, I'm writing a very simple web scraper. It'll download a page from a website and then store the result in a database of some sort. The problem is that this will obviously include a whole heap of HTML, JavaScript and maybe even some CSS. None of which is useful to me.
I was wondering if there was a way in which I could download a web page and then just extract the main body of text without all of the HTML. The title is obviously easy but the main body of text could contain all sorts of HTML and I'm interested to know how I might go about removing the bits that are not needed but still keep the meaning of the document intact. Does anyone have any suggestions on this front at all? Thanks for any help.
