Here is the simple example for getting data form this string "http://www.gettingagile.com/feed/rss2/"

public class MainClassXml {

    public static void main(String args[]) throws URISyntaxException,
            ClientProtocolException, IOException, MalformedURLException {

        String url = "http://www.gettingagile.com/feed/rss2/";
        System.out.println("Url is careated****");
        URL url2 = new URL(url);
        HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(url);
        HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();

        HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpGet);
        HttpEntity entity = httpResponse.getEntity();
        System.out.println("Entity is*****" + entity);
        try {
            String xmlParseString = EntityUtils.toString(entity);
            System.out.println("This Stirng to be Pasrse***" + xmlParseString);

            HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url2
                    .openConnection();
            InputStream inputStream = connection.getInputStream();

            DocumentBuilderFactory builderFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory
                    .newInstance();
            DocumentBuilder documentBuilder = builderFactory
                    .newDocumentBuilder();
            Document document = documentBuilder.parse(inputStream);
            document.getDocumentElement().normalize();

            System.out.println("Attributes are***" + document.getAttributes());

            NodeList nodeList = document.getElementsByTagName("rss");
            System.out.println("This is firstnode" + nodeList);
            for (int getChild = 0; getChild < nodeList.getLength(); getChild++) {

                Node Listnode = nodeList.item(getChild);
                System.out.println("Into the for loop"
                        + Listnode.getAttributes().getLength());
                Element firstnoderss = (Element) Listnode;
                System.out.println("ListNodes" + Listnode.getAttributes());
                System.out.println("This is node list length"
                        + nodeList.getLength());

                Node Subnode = nodeList.item(getChild);
                System.out.println("This is list node" + Subnode);
                System.out.println("rss attributes***************");
            }

        } catch (Exception exception) {

            System.out.println("Exception is" + exception);

        }
    }
