Please help. Thanks In Advance

Answer 1

use

top=top.replaceall("<br\\/>"," ");

instead of

top=top.replaceall("<br\/>"," ");

EDIT : maybe String.relpaceall not work. so best way is use Regular Expressions's Matcher as :

Pattern p = Pattern.compile("<br\\/>");
String tempstr = "I love <br/>  <br/>  <br/> <br/>.";

Matcher matcher = p.matcher(tempstr );
String tmp = matcher.replaceAll("Android");
System.out.println(tmp);

OUTPUT IS:

"I love Android. Android Android Android."

Try this.

String res = Html.fromHtml(yourString).toString();
