Html is not a format you wish to extract data from. Mainly because this
is the endpoint of content AND display, meaning, that what is properly
parsed today may not be parsed tomorrow because someone changed the
background color.
You should change your server so he can feed a client with data (xml for
instance is quite close from the html syntax, it's based on tags and is
suitable for data).
