How to use regular expressions to parse HTML in Java?
From the following code, I want to extract HREF based on span item. Suppose I give input as “Home”, then I should be able to get the href before it. What is the regular expression for the same in Java
This is the HTML code
<a class="first navibar_link" href="/mnetbank/servlet/Main?prefix=0003015106-680870747659702266"><span>Home</span></a>
Don’t use regular expressions for extracting data from HTML, it’s too complicated to get it right. Use Jsoup instead.
