Android Image URL from HTML

Question

I'm developing Android app. There is a json, which contains field "thumb". "thumb" is a string with html code.

"thumb":"<img width=\"1280\" height=\"570\" src=\"http:\/\/xxx.xxx.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/profesor--kosmos.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium-size wp-post-image\" alt=\"Hello World" \/>"

The question is how to extract image url from this string to obtain smth like this:

String url = "http:\/\/xxx.xxx.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/profesor--kosmos.jpg"

Task is not to download image or display it. Just to obtain URL.

With String:indexOf() and String:substring() you can do that in only a few lines. No need for a heavy parser. — greenapps
