jsoup is a Java library for working with real-world HTML.
It provides a very convenient API for extracting and manipulating data,
using the best of DOM, CSS, and jquery-like methods.
jsoup implements the WHATWG HTML5 specification,
and parses HTML to the same DOM as modern browsers do.
- scrape and parse HTML from a URL, file, or string
- find and extract data, using DOM traversal or CSS selectors
- manipulate the HTML elements, attributes, and text
- clean user-submitted content against a safe white-list,
to prevent XSS attacks
- output tidy HTML
jsoup is designed to deal with all varieties of HTML found in the wild;
from pristine and validating, to invalid tag-soup;
jsoup will create a sensible parse tree.
