    <p>I am trying to solve the following problem.</p> <p>Assume I have a HTML file that reads:</p> <hr> <pre><code>&lt;/div class = nameCouldBeAnything1&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;some text here&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class = nameCouldBeAnything2&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;some more text here&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class = nameCouldBeAnything3&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;even more text here&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;and here&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;and here&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;and here&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;and here&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <hr> <p>What I am trying to achieve is to store the contents in between the <strong>div</strong> tags into separate string or string array variables.</p> <p>If there is a Jsoup solution this would be great, if there isn't then a regex string matching starting from p and ending at /p would be great also.</p> <p><strong>The challenges to take into consideration are:</strong></p> <p>1) You can not use specific div class names to pinpoint the location of the p tags in order to obtain the plaintext using Jsoup. </p> <p>2) Using <code>doc.select("body p")</code> or <code>doc.select("div p")</code> from Jsoup kind of works, however when you want to store the p tags into string variables they will be written individually into variables instead of by <strong>div</strong> into variables.</p> <p>This is what I have so far:</p> <pre><code>htmlFile = Jsoup.parse(input, "UTF-8"); Elements body = htmlFile.select("body p"); Element bodyStart = body.first(); Element bodyEnd = body.last(); Element p = bodyStart; int divCount = 0; while(p != bodyEnd) { p = body.get(divCount); System.out.println(p.text()); divCount++; } </code></pre> <p>This will get each individual p tag however I want the p tags to stay within their respective divs and store each individual div into string/string array variables.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
