I also use htmlparser, which is rather good. I've had to customize it,
though, to parse strings containing
html source rather than accept urls of resources to fetch etc. Also it
crashes on meta tags that don't have
name attributes (something I discovered only a couple of days ago).

Can someone please suggest a HTML text extraction library? In the Lucene
book, it recommends Tidy. Seems jtidy is not really being maintained.
We use this library to do our HTML parsing work:
http://htmlparser.sourceforge.net/
It's fairly resilient to bad code, including things like false
assumptions about nesting HTML inside script. (e.g.
document.write("</script>");
