If you mean the movie description, the page structure looks like it won't be that easy to extract with simple searches (upon a quick glance, it looks like you need to find the paragraph within the div with class "innercontenttxt" within a div with the ID "innercontenttxt").

I have no idea which J2ME parser/library would be useful for something like this.

I suggest you to do data scraping using YQL.
And then, you can call the query using public REST query from: http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=

[jeffrey.halimsetiawan]

You can use this query to get all of the body section of your page:

SELECT * FROM html WHERE url="http://www.teluguone.com/news/content/Psycho-Samba-Police-Decides-to-Stop-Search-Operations-25-15676.html"

The result of this query can be called from this REST link.
If you just want to get some parts of that link, you can use XPath. For example:

SELECT * FROM html WHERE url="http://www.teluguone.com/news/content/Psycho-Samba-Police-Decides-to-Stop-Search-Operations-25-15676.html" AND xpath="//div[@id='headermain']"

Then, you can get the data from J2ME using HttpConnection class with GET request.
You will get a XML file, so you need to parse the file sing kXML Parser.

I hope my explanation can help you.

If you go the regular expression way...

/(<iframe)(.*?)(<\/iframe>)/ig

...will match "iframe" tag content (more or less), and...

/(src=")(.*?)(")/i

...will match the "src" attribute value within the result of the previous match.

Even if it is for the Perl programming language and not Java, a good, relatively compact regular expressions tutorial can be found here:

http://perldoc.perl.org/perlretut.html

A good book on the subject is "Mastering Regular Expressions":

Hiiii

i want to extract text between div tag in j2me

<div class="innercontenttxt">
<p>img border="1" align="left" height="170" width="324" vspace="3" hspace="2" src="/tmdbuserfiles/ramdev-balakrishna(1).jpg" alt="ramdev aide remanded, lakrishna acharya judicial remand, ramdev aide fake passport case, baba ramdev assistant judicial custody, balakrishna sent to judicial custody, yoga guru ramdev assistant remanded, yoga guru ramdev assistant balakrishna" />
Yoga guru Ramdev's aide Balakrishna Acharya remanded to 14 days judicial custody in a fake passport on Saturday. He was arrested yesterday after he failed to appear at a Dehradun court.

Balakrishna Acharya, who is basically a Nepalese citizen,

After extracting the result should be:

He was arrested yesterday after he failed to appear at a Dehradun court.Balakrishna Acharya, who is basically a Nepalese citizen, is alleged to have submitted fake documents to procure a passport. When he failed to appear in Dehradun court in connection with the case, the court had issued a non-bailable warrant and subsequently arrested him yesterday.

I have tried Jericho HTML Parser ,HTML Parser ,J soup Parser But the java.net.url class is not available in j2me

Modify the first regular expression I already gave you in http://www.developer.nokia.com/Commu...l=1#post900261

(Moderators might just as well merge this thread with that one.)

Indeed, this thread consists of 3 of yours by now ("How To Extract Text From Html Web page in j2me Midlet(java)", "How to do Parsing in j2me" and this "new" one, "i want to extract text between div tag in j2me(java)").
However sooner or later repeated questions will be just deleted without merging/answering again.
