I have to extract some information from a web page, and reformat it for the user.
Since the web page is somewhat regular, now I use HttpClient to retrive the HTML as a string, and I extract substrings in given locations with the relevant data.
Anyhow I’m wondering if there is a better way, maybe an HTML-aware way. How would you do it?
Cheers
Ideally, you should use a real HTML-parser. I’ve used Jsoup successfully in the past on Android:
