Answer 1

Some excellent answers, System.Linq is handy!

For a non Linq based approach:

private HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument RemoveScripts(HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument webDocument)
{

// Get all Nodes: script
HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlNodeCollection Nodes = webDocument.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//script");

// Make sure not Null:
if (Nodes == null)
    return webDocument;

// Remove all Nodes:
foreach (HtmlNode node in Nodes)
    node.Remove();

return webDocument;

}

Answer 2

You can do so using HtmlDocument class:

HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlDocument();

doc.LoadHtml(input);

doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//style|//script").ToList().ForEach(n => n.Remove());

Answer 3

HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument();
doc.LoadHtml(html);

doc.DocumentNode.Descendants()
                .Where(n => n.Name == "script" || n.Name == "style")
                .ToList()
                .ForEach(n => n.Remove());
