Jsoup is a Java HTML parser that can directly parse a URL address and HTML text content. It provides a set of very labor-saving APIs that can be used to retrieve and manipulate data through DOM, CSS, and operations similar to JQuery.

The main functions of jsoup are as follows:

Parse HTML from a URL, file, or string;
Use the DOM or CSS selector to find and retrieve data;
HTML elements, attributes, and text can be operated;
Jsoup is released based on the MIT protocol and can be safely used in commercial projects.

The detailed improvements are as follows:

Improvements:
-Added the element type FormElement, to facilitate simple form submissions. Find forms in a doc using Elements. forms (), then prepare it for submission with FormElement. submit ().
-Improved the reliability of HTTP character-set recognition from response headers, fig for when servers return out-of-spec responses.
-Added Document. location () to retrieve the document's location URL. Handy if the request was redirected from the original URL.
-Large decrease in the amount of temporary objects created during parsing, leading to less GC load (helpful participant ularly on Android), and faster parsing.
-Improved the time to match elements with common CSS selectors ~ 27%.
Bug Fixes:
-Fixed support for self-closing script tags.
-Fixed a crash when reading an unterminated CDATA section.
-Fixed an issue where elements added via the adoption agency algorithm did not preserve their attributes.
-Fixed an issue when cloning a document with extremely nested elements that cocould cause a stack-overflow.
-Fixed an issue when connecting or redirecting to a URL that contains a space.
