html - Jsoup: <div> within an <a> -

according this answer:

html 4.01 specifies <a> elements may contain inline elements. <div> block element, may not appear inside <a>.

but...

html5 allows <a> elements contain blocks.

well, tried selecting <div class="m"> within <a> block, using:

elements elems = a.select("m"); 

and elmes returns empty, despite div being there.

so thinking: either not using correct syntax selecting div within or... jsoup doesn't support html5-only feature?

what right jsoup syntax selecting div within a?

update: tried

elements elems = a.getelementsbyclass("m"); 

and jsoup had no problems (i.e. returns correct number of such divs within a).

so question is: why?

why a.getelementsbyclass("m") work whereas a.select("m") doesn't?

update: tried, per @delan azabani's suggestion:

elements elems = a.select(".m"); 

and worked. a.select() works missing . in front of class name.

the select function takes selector. if pass 'm' argument, it'll try find m elements children of a element. need pass '.m' argument, find elements m class under a element.
