Reading HTML file to DOM tree using Java

Question

Is there a parser/library which is able to read an HTML document into a DOM tree using Java? I'd like to use the standard DOM/Xpath API that Java provides.

Most libraries seem have custom API's to solve this task. Furthermore the conversion HTML to XML-DOM seems unsupported by the most of the available parsers.

Any ideas or experience with a good HTML DOM parser?

Answer 1

JTidy, either by processing the stream to XHTML then using your favourite DOM implementation to re-parse, or using parseDOM if the limited DOM imp that gives you is enough.

Alternatively Neko.
