Java - Reading URL Response

I want to grab the source code of a page which contains the word "true" or "false". That's the only two words that would be on that page, no other formatting.

So I just need Java to URL connect to that page "http://example.com/example.php" and just grab the contents.

There is an easy way to do that using Apache Commons IO. For example for mentioned action you can just write

URL url = new URL("http://example.com/example.php");
String content = IOUtils.toString(new InputStreamReader(
                        url.openStream()));
