Re: [Htmlparser-user] Can HTMLParser solve this problem ?

[Ian M. <ian...@gm...>]

HTMLParser is certainly capable of rewriting bits of HTML, but bear in
mind that the rest of the output may not be quite the same as the
input.

To get HTMLParser to make a parser from a URL, use the constructor
that takes the URL as a String. If you've got the page as a String
already, then do Parser.setInputHTML. Then modify the document as you
see fit, then use the toHTML method for the root document obtained
from doing parser.parse.

API reference is here:
