In xmlpullparser have this method to get data from URL call this function like this

XmlPullParserFactory factory = XmlPullParserFactory.newInstance();       
factory.setNamespaceAware(true);
XmlPullParser parser = factory.newPullParser();
parser.setInput(new InputStreamReader(getUrlData("url as string")));

function for getting data from url.

public InputStream getUrlData(String url) throws URISyntaxException, 
                                          ClientProtocolException, IOException {

    DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
    HttpGet method = new HttpGet(new URI(url));
    HttpResponse res = client.execute(method);
    return res.getEntity().getContent();
}
