Using Apache Velocity Api we can combine Java objects (Lists, POJOs etc.) with a (HTML) template and create the (HTML) output.

Is there any Java API that can help reverse engineer this ? The input of this API could be HTML output and the template used, the output should be the data (in Java/XML format) that was used to generate the output.

I am aware of HTTP Unit API, but this just lets me extract HTML elements (like Tables). I am looking for something that extracts the data based on some template.

    You can use google protobuf in order to convert messages for different types. And it is very easy to define templates as well. I create JavaScript Objects using JSON.parse(), and in Java you can use protobuf to convert JSON to Java objects.
