Hello Tony,
I guess you want to insert the data of tables included in your HTML
Pages, am I right???
If so, may be you want to create a Shell-Script (Perl ???) that reads the
rows of your tables in the HTML-Pages using the HTML tags
<th></th> <td></th>as field separator.
You also can convert the HTML-pages first in human readable ascii - tables :)
and than read this output with a Script (Again Perl ???). The tools to do
this is 'html2text'.
Best Regards / Mit freundlichen Gruß / Un saludo
