Any way to associate a HtmlElement (.NET) to a JavaScript element?

I'm trying to make an extended version of a WebBrowser with stuff like highlighting text and getting properties or attributes of elements for a Web Scraper. WebBrowser functions doesn't help much at all, so if I could just find a way from HtmlElement to a JavaScript element (like the one returned by document.getElementById), and back, a开发者_Python百科nd then add JavaScript functions to the HTML from my application, it would make the job a lot easier. Right now I'm messing with the HTML of the code programmatically from C# and it's very messy. I was thinking about setting some unique Id to each HTML element from my program and then call the JavaScript document.getElementById to retrieve it. But that won't work, they might already have an Id assigned and I will mess up their HTML code. I don't know if I can give them some made up attribute like my_very_own_that_i_hope_no_web_page_on_the_world_ever_uses_attribute and then figure out if there is some JavaScript function getElementByWhateveAttributeIWant but I'm not sure if this would work. I read something about expansion or extended attributes on the DOM documentation in msdn but I'm not sure what that is about. Maybe some of you guys have a better way.

It would be much easier to use some rendering engine like trident to get the data from html document. Here is the Link for trident/MSHTML. you can do google and can have samples in c#

This is not nearly as hard as you imagine. You don't have to modify the document at all.

Once the WebBrowser has loaded a page, it's kept internally as a tree with the document node at the root. This node is available to your program, and you can find any element you want (or just enumerate them all) by walking the tree.

If you can give a concrete example, I can supply some code.
