Use JSoup Cleaner to remove HTML stuff.

Example :

String unsafe = "your string containing html";
String safe = Jsoup.clean(unsafe, Whitelist.basic());

You can try

String unsafe = "Java technology's versatility, efficiency, <br/> <br/> platform portability, and security make it the ideal technology for network computing. <div/>";
String safe = unsafe.replaceAll("<[^>]+>", "")
