This one was a little tough for me.  I didn't peek at anybody else's solution yet, but there MUST be a better way to do it than I did.

Good regex practise, also amazed how I haven't come across the 'Make Columns' tool! Saved about 4 tools!

I don't feel as though this was my best work but I did learn quite a bit along the way. Similar to the posted solution.

Cool parsing challenge.

My first time parsing HTML. https://regexr.com/ is quite neat for testing

 

Managed to find a RegEx what did most of job, which resulted in a small 4 tool solution leveraging the Make Column-tool. The least sexy part is clearing out the <null> values. Is that really the best way?

I did not know how to do this nicely! Feels much too hacked!
