C# How to read an entire div class in a html page source
I would like to read the following page source in C#: www.joindota.com/en/start/
I need to read the matchticker on the side, however, in the page source that is available but the divs etc are all the same for the rest, how do I differentiate? To explain my question better by example:
<div class="item_head swap" onclick="matchticker_toggle_coverage(1596)">
<span style="float: right;" >19:00h</span>
<div class="item_head_swap item_head_swap_open" id="matchticker_coverage_arrow_1596"></div>
The Defense
</div>
<div id="matchticker_coverage_content_1596" >

The values change all the time, like the team vs team as well as the date and time. How would I be able to read this all into one string that would output something like this to the console:
The Defense: mTw vs. Wolves [Wed, 25.01.2012, 21:00 CET] - EG vs. Mouz [Wed, 25.01.2012, 19:30 CET] etc
Those values change every day, like the teams, dates, etc. But the
How would I be able to read that entire div class for "The Defense", and output those specific details I need to the console in a string or something? I don't know how I would go about doing this.
Any help would be appreciated.

If I were you I'd use HTML Agility Pack, it uses XPath to let you navigate to the node you want, and then you can extract the exact node you like.
