QuestionConnecting to website and checking elements Pin

Hi,

How can I connect to a website, and check if there are any elements that contain an given id, class or name. As for an example, let's say connect to https://www.google.com/, and check if this website has an element (input, div, image, etc) with id="anElement", or class="anElement", or name="anElement".
I have tried using the following code, but I'm getting from one error to another, which makes me think this isn't what I have to use, or I'm just doing it wrong.

URL url = new URL("https://www.google.com/");
HttpURLConnection httpURLConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();

DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
Document doc = db.parse(new InputSource(httpURLConnection.getInputStream()));
NodeList noteList = doc.getElementsByTagName("anElement");
