Read html code as data source

Hi guys,

if you want to read data available in the web, you only can read easily the data inside the <Table> tag, but sometimes you need to get info outside the <table> format and it could be very difficult.

Here's an example of html code you can read :

<div id="div1" title ="titleDiv1" alt ="Interesting Content"class="classDiv1"> Interesting Content Div1 </div>

<span class="lia-node-icon" title="Idea" alt="This is an idea" id="imagedisplay">What an incredible Idea, Marcel</span>

And it would be lovely if Qlik could read the <div>, <span>,<ul>,<li>,... tags to get an output table like this :

Best regards, Marcel.
