Menu
I need to validate HTML using java. So I try with jsoup library. But some my test cases failing with it.
For eg this is my html content. I dont have any control on this content. I am getting this from some external source provider.
String invalidHtml = "<div id=\"myDivId\" ' class = claasnamee value='undaa' > <<p> p tagil vanne <br> <span> span close cheythillee!! </p> </div>";
doc = Jsoup.parseBodyFragment(invalidHtml);
For above html I am getting this output.
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<div id="myDivId" '="" class="claasnamee" value="undaa">
<
<p> p tagil vanne <br /> <span> span close cheythillee!! </span></p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
for a single quote in my above string is comming like this. So how can I fix this issue. Any one can help me please.

The best place to validate your html would be http://validator.w3.org/. But that would be manual process. But dont worry jsoup can do this for you as well. The below program is like a workaround but it does the purpose.
import org.jsoup.Jsoup;
import org.jsoup.nodes.Document;
import org.jsoup.nodes.Element;
public class JsoupValidate {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
String invalidHtml = "<div id=\"myDivId\" ' class = claasnamee value='undaa' > <<p> p tagil vanne <br> <span> span close cheythillee!! </p> </div>";
Document initialDoc = Jsoup.parseBodyFragment(invalidHtml);
Document validatedDoc = Jsoup.connect("http://validator.w3.org/check")
.data("fragment", initialDoc.html())
.data("st", "1")
.post();
System.out.println("******");
System.out.println("Errors");
System.out.println("******");
for(Element error : validatedDoc.select("li.msg_err")){
System.out.println(error.select("em").text() + " : " + error.select("span.msg").text());
}
System.out.println();
System.out.println("**************");
System.out.println("Cleaned output");
System.out.println("**************");
Document cleanedOuput = Jsoup.parse(validatedDoc.select("pre.source").text());
cleanedOuput.select("meta[name=generator]").first().remove();
cleanedOuput.outputSettings().indentAmount(4);
cleanedOuput.outputSettings().prettyPrint(true);
System.out.println(cleanedOuput.html());
}
}
