Hi
I am trying to parse HTML in android from a webpage, and since the webpage it not well formed, I get SAXException.
Is there a way to parse HTML in android?
(my guess is not, so the follow up question is: what is the best way to do this? )
Thanks

A:
There are many Java HTML parsers. Whether any work on Android, I can't say. I've seen people experiment with TagSoup, based on other posts here in SO.

A:
Have you tried using Html.fromHtml(source)?
I think that class is pretty liberal with respect to source quality (it uses TagSoup internally, which was designed with real-life, bad HTML in mind). It doesn't support all HTML tags though, but it does come with a handler you can implement to react on tags it doesn't understand.

You should post follow-up questions as a separate thread, notas an answer. After all, it doesn't really answer *this*question. Also more people would see it and try to answer if you post it asyour own question.You can of course always link back to this question for reference.

Maybe you can use WebView, but as you can see in the doc WebView doesn't support javascript and other stuff like widgets by default.

I think that you can enable javascript if you need it.
