    <h2>The Basic Issue</h2> <p>The parser is behaving correctly. You are just using the same expressions to parse different types of elements. </p> <h2>Revised code</h2> <p>Here is a snippet, focusing only on returning scraped lists. Once you have the lists, you can format the text table easily:</p> <pre><code>import BeautifulSoup def get_queue(data): # Args: # data: string, contains the html to be scraped soup = BeautifulSoup.BeautifulSoup(data) stable = soup.find('table') header = stable.findAll('th') headers = [ th.text for th in header ] cells = [ ] rows = stable.findAll('tr') for tr in rows[1:-2]: # Process the body of the table row = [] td = tr.findAll('td') row.append( td[0].find('a').text ) row.append( td[1].find('a').text ) row.extend( [ td.text for td in td[2:] ] ) cells.append( row ) footer = rows[-1].find('td').text return headers, cells, footer </code></pre> <h2>Output</h2> <p><code>headers</code>, <code>cells</code>, and <code>footer</code>, cells can now be fed into a <code>texttable</code> formatting function:</p> <pre><code>import texttable def show_table(headers, cells, footer): retval = '' table = texttable.Texttable() table.header(headers) for cell in cells: table.add_row(cell) retval = table.draw() return retval + '\n' + footer print show_table(headers, cells, footer) </code></pre> <pre class="lang-none prettyprint-override"><code>+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+ | Artist - | Album | Album | Series | Duration | Type of | Time to | | Title | | Type | | | Play | play | +==========+==========+==========+==========+==========+==========+==========+ | Song 1 | Album 1 | ... | | 5:43 | S.A.M. | ~0:00:00 | +----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+ | Song2 | Album 2 | ... | | 6:16 | S.A.M. | ~0:05:43 | +----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+ | Song 3 | Album 3 | ... | | 4:13 | S.A.M. | ~0:11:59 | +----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+ | Song 4 | Album 4 | ... | | 5:34 | S.A.M. | ~0:16:12 | +----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+ | Song 5 | Album 5 | ... | | 4:23 | S.A.M. | ~0:21:46 | +----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+ There are x songs in the queue with a total length of x:y:z. </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
