package com.bethecoder.tutorials.jsoup.tests;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;

import org.jsoup.Jsoup;
import org.jsoup.nodes.Document;

public class SelectTest2 {

  /**
   * @param args
   * @throws IOException 
   */
  public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
    InputStream ins = SelectTest2.class.
        getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("Simple.html");
    
    Document doc = Jsoup.parse(ins, "UTF-8", "btc.com");
    System.out.println(doc.select("div").first().toString()); //First div
    
    //ul under a div having 'mainnavs' as class
    System.out.println(doc.select("div.mainnavs > ul"));  
    
    //anchors under li under ul under a div having 'mainnavs' as class
    System.out.println(doc.select("div.mainnavs > ul > li > a")); 
    
    //first anchor under li under ul under a div having 'mainnavs' as class
    System.out.println(doc.select("div.mainnavs > ul > li > a").first()); 
  }

}
   

It gives the following output,
