[Htmlparser-user] can't catch parser.setURL() exception

[Wen <log...@ya...>]

Hi

I have a code like this:

Parser parser = new Parser();
try{
    parser.setURL("http://www.pbs.org/journeyintoamazonia");
}catch(ParserException pe){
      pe.printStackTrace();
}
  
  However, the try-catch brace can't catch the exception. I still got the  following exception and the execution stopped in this case.
  
  org.htmlparser.util.ParserException: Connection timed out: connect;
  java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect
      at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method)
      at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.doConnect(Unknown Source)
      at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connectToAddress(Unknown Source)
  
  Does anyone know what's happening?
  
  p.s. thanks Derrick. Your solution for my last reply is working fine. : )
  
  wen
