Solution 1

The obvious problem is that the <div> you've shown has a class of l - a lower-case L - whereas you're searching for a class of 1.

You're also trying to select an element called title, which doesn't exist; the title shown is an attribute.

var name = htmlDocument?.DocumentNode?.SelectNodes("//div[@class=\"l\"]//span[@class=\"ls_h_desc\"]")[0].InnerText;

the compiler didn't work on it and console window is open which didn't give any response

What do you mean "the compiler didn't work"? It's the same code that you posted in your question, with the <div> class name corrected to match the HTML you posted, and the //title selector removed.

Solution 2

did you try jQuery selector?

i didn't test but something like this should work

$("div.l > span.ls_h_desc").val()
