Hi, I found this package helpful for parsing html. But it is giving wrong xpath when the element is part of form. Any idea how to fix this?

I have the same problem too.

Given the source as the following. I expected I could retrieve the node using '/html/body/form/div[2]'. Instead, I could get the node by using '/html/body/div[2]'. Is it a bug? Can somebody please helps? Thanks

<html>

<body>
<form>
    <div></div>
    <div>Hello World</div>

</form>
</body>

</html>

Hey CSharp DEV,

I digged into the source code and found something. I simply removed the line where it categorizes form tag as a tag not allowing other tags.
