Android jSoup Help

I am trying to parse html from this url http://skyalipi.blogspot.com/2011/04/there-is-no-resistance-without.html using jSoup. I am using this code

Document doc = Jsoup.parse("http://skyalipi.blogspot.com/2011/04/there-is-no-resistance-without.html");  

       Log.d("test", "the elements"+doc);

In the log, I am getting the following 

05-26 12:05:05.355: DEBUG/test(696): the elements<html>
05-26 12:05:05.355: DEBUG/test(696):  <head></head>
05-26 12:05:05.355: DEBUG/test(696):  <body>
05-26 12:05:05.355: DEBUG/test(696):   http://skyalipi.blogspot.com/2011/04/there-is-no-resistance-without.html 
05-26 12:05:05.355: DEBUG/test(696):  </body>
05-26 12:05:05.355: DEBUG/test(696): </html>

Jsoup is treating your URL as if it is the text that you want to parse, and is converting it into valid HTML so that it can be parsed. I think you want to connect to the site and retrieve the content at that url, then parse the result:

Document doc = Jsoup.connect("http://skyalipi.blogspot.com/2011/04/there-is-no-resistance-without.html").get();

EDIT

Have a look at the documentation for examples. You can do things like:

Element example = doc.getElementById("alternatives1");
Log.d("test","example "+example.text());
