黑客新闻：如何提取评论层次

Question

我试图解析论坛news.ycombinator.com上的评论主题。但是，在查看html之后，似乎没有层次结构来嵌套注释。这会使分析真的很难。例如，这里是一个父评论及其子：

<!-- This part below draws the upvote/downvote images --> 
<table border=0><tr><td><table border=0><tr><td><img src="http://ycombinator.com/images/s.gif" height=1 width=0></td><td valign=top><center><a id=up_4241971 href="vote?for=4241971&dir=up&whence=%69%74%65%6d%3f%69%64%3d%34%32%34%31%37%38%34"><img src="http://ycombinator.com/images/grayarrow.gif" border=0 vspace=3 hspace=2></a><span id=down_4241971></span></center></td><td class="default"><div style="margin-top:2px; margin-bottom:-10px; ">

那么，如何黑客新闻专卖店的评论的分级结构，我怎么能复制它，当我刮他们的数据？

Answer 1

在表中，缩进通过图像标签来完成：

...<td><img src="http://ycombinator.com/images/s.gif" height=1 width=0></td>... 
...<td><img src="http://ycombinator.com/images/s.gif" height=1 width=40></td>... 

想必你会读和解析这些。通过保留width值的内部堆栈，可以完成重新构建实际线程代表。
