Python - Convert HTML to csv

Question

I need to convert a number of html documents into csv format. Is there a module in python which I can use to do this without having to write custom code based on the html script? This link, for example, does the job pretty well.

Thanks

Pandas has support for reading HTML tables. See function read_html. You can output the read data with to_csv to a CSV file.

I had originally planned to convert to csv and process the data in R. But pandas seems like a powerful data tool in its own right. Thanks for this.
