I'd use awk, not sed, as it is easier to understand.

However, since most of the necessary is already done, I'll just add another couple of lines:

Code:
sed -n -e "/Brown/,/<\/table>/p" 11305106082.html |
sed "/Register/d;/Name/d;/blue/d;/^$/d;s/> />/g;s/^[ \t]*//;s/[ \t]*$//" |
sed -e :a -e N -e "s/<\/td>\n/,/;s/<\/th>\n/,/" -e ta |
sed -e :a -e "s/<[^>]*>//g;/</N;//ba" |
sed "/^$/d" | {
 read line
 sed  "/.../ s/^/$line/"
}

       -t, --trace
	   Enable the output of the essential shell commands which are executed.

	%install
	    shtool subst -v -n

	    make install

HISTORY

       The GNU shtool subst command was originally written by Ralf S.  Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 2001 for GNU shtool.  It was prompted
       by the need to have a uniform and convenient patching frontend to sed(1) operations in the OpenPKG package specifications.

SEE ALSO

       shtool(1), sed(1).
