Question

I hope you can point me in a right direction,
Im making a Android app that gets content of a website,
At the moment my app loads dat webpage in a webview, but the page is to wide for almost every screen, so i had another idea:

webcontent(html) -> get contents of table with android -> make a listview -> when sliding right you get another day.

the webcontent is a timetable for school, a example is this one http://intranet.staring.nl/toepassingen/rooster/lochem/2W2/2012102920121104/2W01532.htm
what i want is that every day comes in a listview and that a user can swap right or left to change the day there seeing.

Now im getting already stuck on making the listview from the html source, can somebody help me with this?

Answer 1

You should access those data using a webservice…

Because otherwise you’ll need to download a LOT of useless HTML code + parse it…

But IF this is the way you want to go, or you have no control over that website, you could read the file and simply parse it using regular expressions I guess.

Here are some tools I found:

• JTidy
• JSoup

Parsing HTML in Java?
