The subsections are displayed by simply changing the display style from none to block, and the links exist in the source HTML (i.e. they are not pulled via AJAX). For this reason you should be able to just select all the links within that section.
If you're still using Html Agility Pack, then you could do:
If you're still using Html Agility Pack, then you could do:

Oh, sorry. I meant to exclude that as well:
doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//span[@class='branch']//a[not(starts-with(@href, 'javascript:')) and not(starts-with(@href, 'rss/'))]")
Brilliant kaufmed. Its working perfectly.
I use Altova to test any xpath on xml documents but wonder if there is a similar tool to test Html DOM.

I don't know of any. HTML is becoming more in line with XML with new standards that are released. Most of the frameworks people use today to build HTML do so such that the HTML is well-formed (similar to XML). As such, you should be able to use Altova on any well-formed HTML since HTML is (technically) a subset of XML (even though HTML was around first). Unless you are dealing with someone who hand-code their web page, you should be OK using Altova.
