Hi,

I would like to connect to a website that requires authentification (basic
authentification for example)and then process the html code. Unfortunately I
haven't found a way to authenticate me as a user via the htmlparser API. Did I
overlook something, or what do I need to do?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Take a look at Jakarta Commons, there is HttpClient project which does
everything needed for connection and authentication and much more for you, =
if
you need to deal with HTTP protocol.

[Htmlparser-user] parsing bug?

[Subramanya S. <sa...@cs...>]

I am writing to check if what I am observing is a parsing bug, and if 
so, if there are any known workarounds.

When javascript is being parsed, at the start, my NodeVisitor's visitTag 
method gets called.  As expected, all starting html tags within the 
javascript itself are being ignored since they are are part of the 
javascript and not the HTML.  However, at the first closing tag that is 
encounted within the javascript code (even within strings), the parser 
triggers a close script tag and calls my visitor's visitEndTag method 
gets called.

For example with "</textarea>" string within the javascript, I get 2 
successive calls to visitEndTag, first with the SCRIPT tag and next with 
the TEXTAREA tag.  Or, with a "</he" + "ad>" string within javascript, I 
get 2 successive calls to visitEndTag, first with the SCRIPT tag and 
next with the TEXTAREA tag.

As an example, test the 2 urls:

1. http://youtube.com/?v=qf4tdOKKWic
2. http://www.deccanherald.com/Content/Oct202007/city2007102031594.asp

Any leads to fix this are much appreciated.

Thanks,
Subbu.

[Htmlparser-user] Changing the HTML code

[Lucas S. <lsa...@gm...>]

Hello everyone. It seems a simple task, but I couldn't figure out how to do
it yet.

What I want to do is to get an HTML code from a database and check if all
the images path and link path are relative ou absolute, if they are relative
I'll turn then to absolute. So an <a href="test.html"> would become a <a
href="http://www.marx.com.br/test.html">.

So tried to do it on two ways:

1 - First way

I first created the parse:

Parser parse = new Parser();
parse.setInputHTML(html.toString());

Where the html variable is a StringBuffer.

After it I created an filter and searched for it on the parse:

NodeFilter filtro = new NodeClassFilter(LinkTag.class);
lista = parse.extractAllNodesThatMatch(filtro);

So than I iterated into the lista variable and changed the link:

aux = link.getLink();
if (aux != null && aux.indexOf("http://") == -1){
      aux = "http://www.marx.com.br/" + aux;
}
link.setLink(aux);


2 - Second way

I did the samething of the first way, but besides getting all the link, I
created a NodeVisitor which checks it the tag is an link and change its and
I called the method parse.visitAllNodesWith(visitante);

Until this place is everything working just fine, my problem is how to
retrieve the final html which I have changed?

Thanks,

Re: [Htmlparser-user] extract flickr tags

[Derrick O. <der...@ro...>]

Once you have the paragraph tag (assuming it is defined to be a composite t=
ag) you should be able to pass the NodeList from getChildren() through a fi=
lter via extractAllNodesThatMatch(new TagNameFilter("A")) to extract all th=
e link nodes. Then process the links from the resulting list and extract th=

The microsoft site contains the following snippet:

<head><META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-16">
<title>Microsoft Corporation</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">

It seems they change the content encoding just for the title (god knows why)
The second change, back to utf8 causes things to fall over.

Re: [Htmlparser-user] Parsing Partial HTML text

[Madhur K. T. <mad...@gm...>]

That is cool - I've been using HtmlParser for about 2 years now. I've 
done pretty basic things, though. The deepest I've been in Htmlparser's 
code is to find out how CompostieTagScanner worked - that was the time 
when I wanted to remove all the virtual end tags that the parser added 
to the content.

I think the developer community option seems to be more exciting. I'll 
check on the site for more details on joining the dev side and will 
revert to you. So what - does the project have a set of induction docs 
or what?

Thanks,

Re: [Htmlparser-user] Parsing Partial HTML text

[Madhur K. T. <mad...@gm...>]

Hi Derrick,
I understand that the parser wraps unknown/unregistered tags in generic 
tag classes. But do you think, with so many normal tags not registered 
with HmlParser, it would be time to get them incorporated in the set of 
tags the node factory registers? I mean, the HTML tags - MAP, AREA, 
TBODY, THEAD etc... are very common in a HTML content and I think it 
would be good to have them registered, so that people can work on it.

Would like to hear your comments on the same.
Thanks,
