JSoup: How to get info which is under some tag?

I have such html page:

<a name="robots"></a>
<div class="dnb">
   <div class="info_outer">
      <div class="info">
         <div class="name"><a href="/p/1/">TEXT1</a> <span class="t">TEXT2</span></div>
         <div class="role">SOMEROLE1</div>
      </div>
   </div>
</div>
<a name="humans"></a>
<div class="dnb">
   <div class="info_outer">
      <div class="info">
         <div class="name"><a href="/p/1/">TEXT3</a> <span class="t">TEXT4</span></div>
         <div class="role">SOMEROLE2</div>
      </div>
   </div>
</div>
<div class="dnb">
   <div class="info_outer">
      <div class="info">
         <div class="name"><a href="/p/1/">TEXT5</a> <span class="t">TEXT6</span></div>
         <div class="role">SOMEROLE3</div>
      </div>
   </div>
</div>
<div class="dnb">
   <div class="info_outer">
      <div class="info">
         <div class="name"><a href="/p/1/">TEXT7</a> <span class="t">TEXT8</span></div>
         <div class="role">SOMEROLE4</div>
      </div>
   </div>
</div>

I need to get info from these divs (names and roles). But only from those, which are under "humans" separator. Is it possible with JSoup?

Yes, it is possible. Learn selector syntax.

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import org.jsoup.Jsoup;
import org.jsoup.nodes.Document;
import org.jsoup.nodes.Element;

public class JSoupSelectors {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        File input = new File("WeAreTheRobots.xml");
        Document doc = Jsoup.parse(input, null);
        for (Element human : doc.select("a[name=humans]")) {
            Element info = human.nextElementSibling().selectFirst("div.dnb>div.info_outer>div.info");
            String name = info.selectFirst(">div.name>span.t").ownText();
            System.out.println("Name = " + name);
            String role = info.selectFirst(">div.role").ownText();
            System.out.println("Role = " + role);
        }
    }
}

Output:

Name = TEXT4
Role = SOMEROLE2
