Copy the content(view source) of an html file running in browser

Hello,

I want to copy the content(which we will get by view source in IE browser) to my local disc file.This must be done automatically with Java code.Is it possible using java.net package?If yes,please tell me how to do that?

Hello,

I tried the below program.

import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

public class URLGet
{
public static void main(String[] args) {
BufferedReader in=null;
System.out.println("Starting... ");
if (args.length == 1) {
try {
URL url = new URL(args[0]);
in = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(url.openStream()));
BufferedWriter writer=new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(new File("myfile.txt")));
String line=null;
while ((line=in.readLine()) != null)
{
System.out.println(line);
writer.write(line,0,line.length());
}
}
catch (MalformedURLException ex) {
System.err.println(ex);
}
catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
System.err.println("Failed to open stream to URL: "+ex);
}
catch (IOException ex) {
System.err.println("Error reading URL content: "+ex);
}
if (in != null)
try {in.close();} catch (IOException ex) {}
}
else
System.err.println ("Usage: URLGet URL");
}
}

Running: java URLGet http://google.com

But it is giving the error
Error reading URL content: java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect

I didn't get ConnectException when I tried to run the program. (I used different URL since I'm behind firewall/proxy). Try

It should work if you have direct internet connection.

Empty file is created but that's another problem (try closing the writer).

Hi,

I am getting the content for http://localhost:8080/examples/index.html
But why not for http://google.com.

Tell me the solution.

1.
It's http://www.google.com (with www). It seems that http://google.com is also ok but it may only send redirect to www.google.com.

2. You may be behind firewall/proxy server (I get NoRouteToHostException in this case)
