Hi all,
I'm looking for a good way to import HTML tables into org-mode tables. This is complicated by the fact that HTML tables can include multi-line data, which seems to be functionality not present in org-mode. What I usually end up doing is a string of regexp replacements to convert <tr> to linebreaks and <td> to vertical bars, but this is tiresome for a functionality that I'm sure is pretty frequently needed. I've tried pandoc, but it doesn't seem to handle html tables either. Is there an already-existing functionality out there for importing HTML tables into org?
Thanks,
- Tory
