Hi ,
My aim is to retrieve data from a website using HttpURLConnection
I wrote this

import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;

public class webPractice
{

public static void main(String[] args)
{

try
{
URL yahoo = new URL(“http://www.yahoo.com/”);
URLConnection yahooConnection = (URLConnection) yahoo.openConnection();
yahooConnection.connect();
long s=yahooConnection.getDate();

System.out.println(“date”+(String)yahooConnection.getContent());
System.out.println(“Hi”);
}
catch (MalformedURLException e)

{
System.out.println(“URL Exception”);
// new URL() failed
}
catch (IOException es)
{
System.out.println(“IO Exception”);
es.printStackTrace();
// openConnection() failed
}

}

}

It is giving the exception as

java.net.UnknownHostException: http://www.yahoo.com
IO Exception
at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connect(Unknown Source)
at java.net.Socket.connect(Unknown Source)
at java.net.Socket.connect(Unknown Source)

at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.plainConnect(Unknown Source)
at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.connect(Unknown Source)
at webPractice.main(webPractice.java:19)

How can I retrieve the data from a website?
