In jQuery, when doing further DOM selection on an element (e.g. using find), you can use operators at the start of the query to filter based on the current element.

For example, this jQuery: $('table.data > tbody > tr').find('> td') will select td elements that are direct children of the rows found in the first query. It will not select td elements from any nested tables.

With JSoup, this would be something like:

Elements tableRows = doc.select( "table.data>tbody>tr" );
for ( Element tr : tableRows )
{
    // do something with tr here
    tr.select(">td");
}

I currently get this error: Could not parse query >td

Is this fix in version 0.3.1? I just tried and I'm still getting the selector parsing error.

Sorry, no, it's in the next (unreleased) version. See http://github.com/jhy/jsoup/blob/master/CHANGES

The next version is ready for release, hopefully in the next few days. I'm struggling a bit for time with moving house etc.

OK no rush or anything, was just checking. Couldn't find a reference to the version number in that checkin link above. In future I'll keep an eye on that changes file :)
