How to get this text using Jsoup?

Question

How do I get “this text” from the following HTML using Jsoup?

<h2 class="link title"><a href="myhref.html">this text<img width=10 
        height=10 src="img.jpg" /><span class="blah">
        <span>Other texts</span><span class="sometime">00:00</span></span>
        </a></h2>

When i try

String s = document.select("h2.title").select("a[href]").first().text();

he returns

this textOther texts00: 00

I tried to read the api for Selector in Jsoup but couldn't understand much.

Also, how do I get a class element class="link title blah"(multiple classes?). Forgive me, I only know a bit of Jsoup and CSS.

Use Element#ownText()instead Element#text().

String s = document.select("h2.link.title a[href]").first().ownText();

, , , , h2.link.title, <h2>, link, title.
