  • 0

I’m having an application that need to take html and get some tags inside it.

I need to get all the tr’s and all the td’s, and get their inner text.

Can you give me a code to do it?

I’m working on this hours already…

    The easy way out would be using an HTML parsing library, e.g. HTMLCleaner, TagSoup, HTML Parser etc. That way you’ll be able to simply fetch al desired elements from the document, or iterate it manually with a ‘node visitor’ – or whatever the libraries call it.

    A quick look at the documentation of a randomly chosen library from above, suggests something like the following should work for HTMLCleaner:

    HtmlCleaner cleaner = new HtmlCleaner();
TagNode root= cleaner.clean(...);
TagNode[] trNodes= root.getElementsByName("tr");
for (TagNode trNode : trNodes) {
    System.out.println("All text inside this <tr> tag (including children): " + trNode.getText());
}

    An example using the same library, but now with a TagNodeVisitor and filtered on <td>:

    node.traverse(new TagNodeVisitor() {
    public boolean visit(TagNode tagNode, HtmlNode htmlNode) {
        if (htmlNode instanceof TagNode) {
            TagNode tag = (TagNode) htmlNode;
            String tagName = tag.getName();
            if ("td".equals(tagName)) {
                System.out.println("All text inside this <td> tag (including children): " + tag.getText());
            }
        }
        // tells visitor to continue traversing the DOM tree
        return true;
    }
});
