how to parse html file using Jsoup with multiple class-name element?

Question

the below java code works fine for html file with class for eg css-sched-table-title.

However i have multiple class names to find for in the html file eg css-sched-waypoints , css-sched-times. How do i combine the search using getElementsByClass method in jsoup. I don't want to write the code multiple times because I want to preserver the order. My point is i want something like

doc.getElementsByClass("css-sched-table-title" || doc.getElementsByClass("css-sched-waypoints" );

    Document doc = Jsoup.parse(content);

    Elements ele = doc.getElementsByClass("css-sched-table-title");
    for (Element link : ele) {

       String linkText = link.text();
       System.out.println(linkText);    

   }

.

Taking cues from your earlier query, when I try and combine the 3 tds through a valid Selector syntax, I get the result you are expecting.

doc.select("td[class=css-sched-table-title], td[class=css-sched-waypoints], td[class=css-sched-times]")

Note, you can combine multiple conditions within your selector syntax like this Elements row = doc.select("td[class=css-sched-table-title], td[class=css-sched-waypoints], td[class=css-sched-times]"); which effectively becomes your OR operator.

Elements row = doc.select("td[class=css-sched-table-title], td[class=css-sched-waypoints], td[class=css-sched-times]");
        System.out.println("::Total Count::" + row.size());

        Iterator iterator = row.listIterator();
        while (iterator.hasNext()) {
            Element element = iterator.next();
            String id = element.attr("id");
            String classes = element.attr("class");
            String value = element.text();
            System.out.println("Id : " + id + ", classes : " + classes
                    + ", value : " + value);
        }

Gives,

::Total Count::25

Id : , classes : css-sched-waypoints, value : Townline and Southern

Id : , classes : css-sched-times, value : 6:46
Id : , classes : css-sched-times, value :  
Id : , classes : css-sched-times, value : 6:54
