I have opened a puzzle at Programming Puzzles and Code Golf. The question is not perceived well (yet) and one of the reasons is that no reference implementation is provided. To mitigate this shortcoming, I have implemented a (non-golfed and documented) reference solution.

For more details please see the question at PCG.

• ParseHtmlToObjects(), which is a bit too long for my taste
• AddProperty(), which has a ref parameter and causes a side effect. If possible, please suggest a better solution, ideally with a code snippet.

I'd not like feedback about

• Performance, since it is ok with the largest real world test file I have
• converting loops to LINQ, since I simply prefer the loops
• Other nifty C# 10.5 lambda inline tricks etc. that nobody can read 6 months from now

• Implementation language is C# 4.5
• Input is HTML, output is JSON
• Libraries: HtmlAgilityPack, ExCSS and JSON.NET
• Implemted with R# support. The code is almost green with warnings about "Possible multiple enumreation" inside Convert(). Maybe someone can elaborate how critical that is.

• read some awkward and verbose HTML document, extract the relevant information based on various indicators (HTML elements, attributes and CSS style information)
• output valid JSON which contains the relevant information

For more details please see the question at PCG.(If some relevant info shall be included here, just drop a comment)

• entry point is the constructor HtmlToJsonConverter()
• and the Convert() method

I don't provide CustomJsonConverter here, since that is straight forward.
