Java找到HTML标签

Question

Hi I am trying to delete an HTML tag from a string. The tag I am trying to delete is

<td class="gutter"> text text </td>

I tried the following but nothing worked:

String regex = "<td class=\"gutter\">([^<]*)</td>";
Pattern p = Pattern.compile(regex);
Matcher m = p.matcher(htmlstring);
m.find() / m.matches()

But cant seem to find it at all... What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

You can't use regular expressions to work with HTML (or XML). It is impossible to do it right (not "hard", but technically impossible). Use a HTML parser like Jsoup . Then it is easy, just follow the docs.

Answer 2

If you want to strip tags from HTML, use a library that does that. Don't roll your own HTML parser.
