Re: HTML to NSString

From my experience, you won't get what you'd expect -except in maybe some of the much simpler cases. I've tried this approach with some more complicated HTML files and while the displayed results show the basic content, when you call [myAttribString string], you won't get the results you expect.

I've wondered if something in WebKit will make it easier to scrape an HTML file.

I have a situation where I need to read an HTML file and somehow convert it to a NSString.

I know that the NSAttributedString class can be used to read and parse the HTML, but it appears to only export its data as RTF.

If I know that the data can be represented as Unicode (i.e., there are no graphics or attachments), is there a way to create a NSString with it?

Erm,... NSAttributedString has the method "string" which returns a pointer to an NSString...

I suspect you may have been looking at just the documentation for the Cocoa NSAttributedString Additions.
