Solution

  • You can get the required page by connecting the URL. once you have the document then look for elemnt 'td'(check the document by printing it to console if the text is in upper/lower based on that you need to use TD/td). Then get the text.

    Document document = Jsoup.connect("http://www.google.com").get();
Element table = document.getElementById("tableId");
Elements tds = table.getElementsByTag("td");
for(Element td : tds)
{
    System.out.println(td.text());
}
