Abstract: The Semantic Web vision offers the potential to express queries in a more semantic way. However, the unstructured nature of existing web documents, which lack semantics, proves to be a difficult task for such a query. To support this, the semantic information content of web documents needs to be specified in order to make the tangled information more structured and accessible. In this paper, we propose an approach meant to semantically query web documents using a natural language analysis technique and a domain specific ontology. Using both techniques, the tool gradually constructs the semantic document model of the documents retrieved from an existing search engine for each search session, which is represented as XML. The semantic model can then be semantically refined and browsed by the user.
