I can get the Feed from JIRA which is in the XML Format.

Some of the Fields are in the Table Format. Is there any way to parse this Table formatted Fields.

This is the xml file which i received as JIRA Feed:

    </description>

But After <Description> tag everything is like Html Table Format. Is there any way to parse this?
