perlquestion kevind0718 Hello Kind Monks: I hope you will have time for my dilemma. I need to parse HTML tables. Like the data found at this link: http://www.databasefootball.com/boxscores/scheduleyear.htm?yr=1985&lg=nfl So I installed the module HTML::FormatText::WithLinks::AndTables; Which came really close to doing what I need. After downloading the source for the above page, I ran it through a bit of code and got the following: <code> 1985 NFL Season Scores, Schedules and Playoffs [1]1986 1985 [2]1984 Week 1 Sunday, September 8 [1]IND 3 at [1]PIT 45 [1]BOX 1. /teams/teamyear.htm?tm=IND&lg=NFL&yr=1985 1. /teams/teamyear.htm?tm=PIT&lg=NFL&yr=1985 1. /boxscores/gamedata.htm?dy=8&mth=9&yr=1985&tm=PIT&lg=NFL [1]SDG 14 at [1]BUF 9 [1]BOX 1. /teams/teamyear.htm?tm=SDG&lg=NFL&yr=1985 1. /teams/teamyear.htm?tm=BUF&lg=NFL&yr=1985 1. /boxscores/gamedata.htm?dy=8&mth=9&yr=1985&tm=BUF&lg=NFL [1]DEN 16 at [1]LAM 20 [1]BOX 1. /teams/teamyear.htm?tm=DEN&lg=NFL&yr=1985 1. /teams/teamyear.htm?tm=LAM&lg=NFL&yr=1985 1. /boxscores/gamedata.htm?dy=8&mth=9&yr=1985&tm=LAM&lg=NFL [1]PHI 0 at [1]NYG 21 [1]BOX 1. /teams/teamyear.htm?tm=PHI&lg=NFL&yr=1985 1. /teams/teamyear.htm?tm=NYG&lg=NFL&yr=1985 1. /boxscores/gamedata.htm?dy=8&mth=9&yr=1985&tm=NYG&lg=NFL [1]SLC 27 at [1]CLE 24 OT [1]BOX </code> This close to what I need. Problem the URLs are striped out into "footnotes", but they are all [1]. Makes it a bit of a bummer to line up the table contents with the corresponding URL. Can be done, but I was expecting the footnotes to come through as [1], [2], [3]. Hoping somebody has more experience with this module than I do. thanks in advance KD
