So, what trick Hpricot uses to locate "the good" div ? I'm not sure I understand. Hpricot certainly can access elements that way: doc = Hpricot('

one

two

') doc.at('body/div[1]').inner_text # => "one" doc.at('body/div[2]').inner_text # => "two" doc.at('body/div:eq(0)').inner_text # => "one" doc.at('body/div:eq(1)').inner_text # => "two" Chris
