you dont need a linkExtractor you need a listExtractor , if all the links
are inside lists you should get the list and navigate to its children which
is the links .. for this case i suggest you parse the page with filter as
following :
Parser parser = new Parser();
NodeList lists = parser.parse(new NodeClassFilter(BulletList.class));
for(int i=0 i < lists.size() ;i++ ){
BulletList list = lists.elementAt(i);
links = list.getChildern(); // this will give you another NodeList
with children tags
// do whatever you want with the links note that you need to cast each
child them forn Node to LinkTag
}
i didnt test this code , but hopefully it will work
if you gave me a specific example of the html page you want to parse i may
help more
good luck : )
