How to select all nodes with class and specific embedded style attribute

[underwater]

Just starting out with this library, and trying to extract all the elements in an html doc, that have a specific class name, and that also have a style attribute that has a specific inline defined value.

My elements are inside a hierarchy that looks like this
body > table > tbody > tr > td

The collection of p elements I am interested look like this

<p class="s11" style="padding-top: 1pt;padding-left: 1pt;text-indent: 0pt;line-height: 8pt;text-align: left;"> MY TEXT </p>

Any guidance would be appreciated

You can get to the paragraph elements using p.s11[style]. This will get you all p elements with the class s11 and some attribute style. Then if you want to further refine the selection based on the actual content of the style attribute then you could continue to that in LINQ. Here's an example doing just that if the style attribute has CSS property named text-align with a value of left:

var q = 
    from e in doc.DocumentNode.QuerySelectorAll("p.s11[style]")
    where e.GetAttributeValue("style", string.Empty)
           .Split(';')
           .Select(p => p.Split(new[] { ':' }, 2))
           .Where(p => p.Length == 2)
           .Select(p => new { Name = p[0].Trim(), Value = p[1].Trim() })
           .Any(p => p.Name == "text-align" && p.Value == "left")
    select e;

Another option is to use regular expressions:

var q = 
    from e in doc.DocumentNode.QuerySelectorAll("p.s11[style]")
    where Regex.IsMatch(e.GetAttributeValue("style", string.Empty), @"\btext-align\s*:\s*left\b")
    select e;
