Following is the HTML:
<div class="ajaxcourseindentfix">
<h3>CPSC 353 - Introduction to Computer Security (3) </h3>
<hr>Security goals, security systems, access controls, networks and security, integrity, cryptography fundamentals, authentication. Attacks: software, network, website; management considerations, security standards in government and industry; security issues in requirements, architecture, design, implementation, testing, operation, maintenance, acquisition, and services.

<br>Prerequisite: <a href="preview_course_nopop.php?catoid=16&coid=96570" onclick="acalogPopup()">CPSC 253U</a>
<span style="display: none !important"> </span> or <a href="#" onclick="acalogPopup()" target="_blank">CPSC 254</a>
<span style="display: none !important"> </span> and <a href="#" onclick="acalogPopup()" target="_blank">CPSC 351</a>
<span style="display: none !important"> </span>
, declared major/minor in CPSC, CPEN, or CPEI
<br>
</div>
I need to fetch the following text from this HTML:
From Line 6 - or
From Line 7 - and
, declared major/minor in CPSC, CPEN, or CPEI
I am able to get the href [Course number: CPSC 254 etc...] with the following XPath:
# This xpath gives me all the tags followed by h3 and then I iterate through them in my script.
//div[@class='ajaxcourseindentfix']/h3/following-sibling::text()[2]/following-sibling::*
Update
And, then the text with the following XPath:
# This xpath gives me all the text after the h3 tag.
//div[@class='ajaxcourseindentfix']/h3/following-sibling::text()[2]/following-sibling::text()
I need to have these course name/prerequisite in the same way they are at URL 1.
In this approach I am getting all the HREF first, then all text. Is there a better way to achieve this? I don't want to iterate over 2 XPaths to get the HREF first, then Text and after that club them to form the prerequisite string.
