JTidy Node.findBody() — How to use?


I'm trying to do XHTML DOM parsing with JTidy, and it seems to be rather counterintuitive task. In particular, there's a method to parse HTML:

Node Tidy.parse(Reader, Writer)

And to get the <body /> of that Node, I assume, I should use

Node Node.findBody(TagTable)

Where should I get an instance of that TagTable? (Constructor is protected, and I haven't found a factory to produce it.)

I use JTidy 8.0-SNAPSHOT.


Solution

  • I found there's much simpler method to extract the body:

    tidy = new Tidy();
    tidy.setXHTML(true);
    tidy.setPrintBodyOnly(true);
    

    And then use tidy on the Reader-Writer pair.

    Simple as it should be.
