How to replace URLs of links using Java HTMLParser
<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1089517/how-to-replace-urls-of-links-using-java-htmlparser-org-htmlparser>
I am using htmlparser (htmlparser.org) to re-write all the link's in a input
String.
All i need to do is iterate over all the link tags (<a href=...), that
appear in the input String, grab their value, perform some regex to
determine how they should be manipulated, and then update the link's href,
target and onclick values accordingly.
I am not sure how exactly I can update only the select link elements in the
input String, will leaving all other data in the input String untouched.
It seems like the htmlparser library can extract certain elements for
manipulation but it can't manipulate elements in their original context, and
the then return their updated values will maintaining the integrity of the
original context.
Example : <a class="user" href="">ERIC POWER</a> commented on <a
class="user" href="">Test Test</a>'s blog entry, <a href="
http://liferay-sandbox-myview/c/blogs/find_entry?entryId=20801">Dave's Entry
To Test DE742</a>, in <a class="group" href="
http://liferay-sandbox-myview/c/my_places/view?groupId=11113&privateLayout=0">Global
Platform for Sales</a>.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Micheal
