Re: [Htmlparser-user] java.net.ProtocolException: Server redirected too many times (20)

The exception says it all : Server redirected too many  times (20)
There are too many redirections.
This is set by the JVM I think,

Hello All,
 
I am using the following program to generate HTML from a JSP URL –:
 
package Common;
import org.htmlparser.Parser;
import org.htmlparser.util.NodeList;
import org.htmlparser.util.ParserException;
 
public class GetHTML
{
            public String JSPToHTML(String url)
            {
                        String html = "";
                        
                        System.out.println("Generating HTML String from " + url + "...");
                        try
                        {
                                    Parser parser = new Parser (url);
                                    NodeList list = parser.parse (null);
                                    html = list.toHtml ();
                                    System.out.println("HTML successfully generated!");
                        }
                        catch (ParserException pe)
                        {
                                    pe.printStackTrace ();
                        }
                        
                        return html;
            }
}
 
This works fine for every URL I've passed to it save one. Here is a snippet of my server output-:

Everything works fine if I copy and paste the URL into my browser. What might I be missing here? I appreciate any effort to help me. Thank you for your time and consideration.
