Check out the JSoup cookbook.

http://jsoup.org/cookbook/

This has a lot of good information in it and should be able to answer most of your questions.

You are probably looking for something along the lines of this: http://jsoup.org/cookbook/input/parse-body-fragment

Jsoup library is the best option for Html parse.

Step 1: Download jsoup.x.x.x.jar download link
Step 2: Import in libs folder in IDE
Step 3: Set as library

Sample

        // Connect to the web site
        Document document = Jsoup.connect(url).get();
        // Using Elements to get the Meta data
        Elements description = document
                    .select("meta[name=description]");
        //Locate the content attribute
            desc = description.attr("content");
