Groovy class for HTML Scrapping

[Deepak Mittal]

I am working on a hobby project for scrapping some data from some sites. I am wondering if there are any special classes in Groovy for HTML scrapping?

Regards,

Well, Scott put a great piece of code in a previous post, and here it is:

String xml = new URL("http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?p=94089").text

This piece of code invokes the URL (which is a web service), and gets the XML response and puts it in the string variable called "xml". Doing this with normal URLs that return HTML would be the same.
