Good day all, I am trying to figure a way to extract images from a website or webpage using java. I have been hearing of using a parser but don't really know much about it. I was wondering if there is any other way i can go about it or links about using parsers in my code. i have checked java api docs and have not found something concrete except i missed something.

by the way, can this solution also work in j2me cos thats where i need it most. Thank you

I do not know about J2ME, but I can help you do this with normal Java. What you have to do is read the source code of the website: See Here How. Then just search for the img tags.

Now, once you find the image source, all you must do is download them.
For small images, you can use ImageIO.read(): Part 1 of my tutorial here: http://www.dreaminco...howtopic=162748
For larger images, you may want to consider a Swing Worker, which a simple way for multi-threaded GUIs: Part 3 of my tutorial here: http://www.dreaminco...howtopic=162999
