read a stock ticker symbol using java

843802Dec 26 2007
HI Guys,

I am complete beginner to java. I have done c programming before for a long time. But its been 4 years haven't used c.

i am trying to read a stock ticker symbol periodically and save it to my data base. I would like to use java for that. any suggestions on how to do that. IS Java the best tool for reading webpages, especially if tehre are tables in the web pages? For example options page of any stock has a table. Is it easier to to use Java to read the table?

Thanks a bunch
Lex
