title: RSS Parsing using rssutil.jar is not working on Android
body: <p>I am new to Android Application development. I am trying to build a RSS Feed parser using rssutil.jar.
  The piece of the code is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>private void ReadRSS() {
  String tag = "READRSS";
  try {
   //Create Parser
   RssParser parser = RssParserFactory.createDefault();
  
   //Parse out URL
   URL url = new URL("http://www.espncricinfo.com/rss/content/story/feeds/0.xml");
  
   Rss rss = parser.parse(url);
   if(rss.getChannel() ==null)
   {
    tv.append("NULL");
    return;
   }
  
   Collection items = rss.getChannel().getItems();
   if(items!=null &amp;&amp; !items.isEmpty())
   {
    for(Iterator i = items.iterator();i.hasNext();)
    {
     Item item = (Item)i.next();
     tv.append("Title:"+item.getTitle());
     tv.append("Link:" + item.getLink());
     tv.append("Description:"+item.getDescription());
    }
   }
  
  } catch (RssParserException e) {
   // TODO Auto-generated catch block
   Log.v(tag, "RSSParserException");
   e.printStackTrace();
  } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
   // TODO Auto-generated catch block
   Log.v(tag, "MalformedURLException");
   e.printStackTrace();
  } catch (IOException e) {
   // TODO Auto-generated catch block
   Log.v(tag, "IOException");
   e.printStackTrace();
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>}</p>
  
  <p>This code works good when executed as a java application but when I try to execute in Android phone or emulator then I get rss.getChannel() as null, can anyone please let me know why there is a difference in operation between java and android in this case? what should i do to make it work for android phone?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
