[Htmlparser-user] Parsing Partial HTML text

[<mic...@no...>]

I am having trouble parsing html tagged text. It seems that I can retrieve 
a node but that element does not have the child nodes as expected. 

       String table =
                "<tbody>\n" +
                "<tr>\n" +
                "<td><span>brain_normal_GSM80627</span></td>\n" +
                "<td><span>normal</span></td>\n" +
                "<td><span>cerebral cortex</span></td>\n" +
                "<td><span>brain</span></td>\n" +
                "</tr>\n" +
                "</tbody>\n";

        Parser parser = new Parser(new Lexer(table));
        try {
            Node tBodyNode = parser.extractAllNodesThatMatch(new 
TagNameFilter("tbody")).elementAt(0);
            System.out.println(tBodyNode.getChildren());  // Prints null 
<---------------
        } catch (ParserException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();  //To change body of catch statement use 
File | Settings | File Templates.
        }

Does HTML Parser not handle text input or partial html files well?
