How to get data from html in android

I have get html data from webpage. But i want to get only data excluding html tags.

I have tried this:

HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet request = new HttpGet(urlText.getText().toString());
// Get the response
BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InutStreamReader(response.getEntity().getContent()));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = "";
while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null) 
{
   textView.append(line);
   sb.append(line+"\n");
}

This giving me whole html data. Tell me now i can get data only.

Have you tried using Html.fromHtml(source)? or use any Java HTML parser (If they work on android) for this.

Here source is your html formatted whole data.

EDIT:

 while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null) 
            {
                sb.append(line+"\n");
            }
String source = sb.toString();
textView.setText(Html.fromHtml(source));

Look at this example Android Parsing HTML Content Containing Links.
