List of states:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._state
: soup = BeautifulSoup(html)
: # Get the second table (list of states).
: table = soup.first('table').findNext('table')
: print table
...
<tr>
<td>WY</td>
<td>Wyo.</td>
<td><a href="/wiki/Wyoming" title="Wyoming">Wyoming</a></td>
<td><a href="/wiki/Cheyenne%2C_Wyoming" title="Cheyenne,
Wyoming">Cheyenne</a></td>
<td><a href="/wiki/Cheyenne%2C_Wyoming" title="Cheyenne,
Wyoming">Cheyenne</a></td>

</table>
Of each row (tr), I want to get the cells (td): 1,3,4
(postal,state,capital). But cells 3 and 4 have anchors.
Thanks Kent.
