View source for HTML property table extractor

Property table extractor reads simple HTML fragments containing '''table''', '''tr''', and '''td''' elements and converts table content to single association. Extractor expects the table contains only two columns where first column contains property name and second the property value. Each property and property value are considered as an association role and association player of same association. If first line does not contain property value the line is considered as association type. For example consider rather typical table
