http://www.csc.liv.ac.uk/teaching/modules/year3s1/comp304.html

i need to parse this page and extract the member of staff on this page using regular expression.
Using java.utility.regex

i only need the regular expression rest code i have done

//////
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
import java.util.regex.*;

class Spider{
public static void main(String []argv){
try {

URL url = new URL("http://www.csc.liv.ac.uk/teaching/modules/year3s1/comp304.html");
URLConnection urlConnection = url.openConnection();
DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(urlConnection.getInputStream());
String html= "", tmp = "";
// read all HTML source from given URL
while ((tmp = dis.readLine()) != null) {
html += " "+tmp;
}
dis.close();

// replace all white spaces region with single space
html = html.replaceAll("\\s+", " ");
// build the pattern using regular expression

//here is the pattern where i have to define a regular expression to find the name of the author from the page
*
*
//please REPLY ME THE REGULAR EXPRESSION NEEDED PLEASE IN THE Pattern.compile
//for the link http://www.csc.liv.ac.uk/teaching/modules/year3s1/comp304.html

Pattern p = Pattern.compile("");
// Match the pattern with given html source
Matcher m = p.matcher(html);
// Get all matches that matched my pattern
while (m.find() == true){
// Print the first matched pattern
System.out.println(m.group(1));
}
}catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
}
}

Pattern p1 = Pattern.compile("<h2[^>]*>"+".*?]*>"+"([^<]+)"+"</a[^>]*>");
this is the pattern and now you just need to call the second group which will give the names of the author
