Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hi all

I am doing a seach stock symbol function, which retrieve the relative symbol from yahoo finance if user input the company name.

My structure is like this, I have a front end HTML form, which collect user input (company name). Ideally, I want to create a JSP/Servlet to get this company name parameter and search its stock symbol through a connection to yahoo finance.

My question is, Is it possible to use JSP/Servlet to exract data from a HTML document? If yes, what is the easiest way to retrieve data from the particlar table cells using JSP/Servlet? I know HTMLEditorKit() is quite useful when parsing HTML document, but I dont think I can use this kit in JSP/Servlet, am I right?

Many thanks
Kel
