Extract localizable content from a HTML page

I need some advice on the best aproach to a feature I need to implement in a project I'm working on.

Basically, I need to be able to extract all localizable content (i.e. all the strings) from a HTML page. I really don't want to have to go and write a HTML parser. The application is written in C#.

Has anybody got any experience with this, or can anyone recommend an existing library that I could use to accomplish this?

Thanks.

You do not have to write your own parser. Fortunately somebody else already did that.
To parse HTML file, you can use HTML Agility Pack.

In this case you would receive Document Object Model, which you can walk just like any other DOM. Please find these examples:
