An exception:
org.jsoup.select.Selector$SelectorParseException: Could not parse query 'table:nth-child(even)': unexpected token at ':nth-child(even)
The code:
Document doc = Jsoup.connect(URL+params[0]).userAgent("Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/44.0.2403.125 Safari/537.36") .referrer("http://www.google.com").get(); Elements questions= doc.select(".content-box table:nth-child(even) a");
content-box is the name of the div class.
What is wrong with the nth-child() method in jsoup?
nth-child() runs on the http://try.jsoup.org/ site, but makes an exception when used on Android.
