bart, you got it in 1. I totally forgot that the files that are online are completely different from the local files which I have structured a lot differently. I will just download the old files since the new ones are so very different. I took a look at the underlying code of the files that are online about 10 minutes ago right before I updated my reply to wfsp.

Update: After getting the right files, I ran your script. It worked almost flawlessly, except that there are a nested tables in some of the descriptions that are throwing this off. I am looking at the following lines thinking that something should be added there to take into account the nested tables. When colspan = "4" ignore the tables within it.

      if($flag == 1) {
        $_ = "";
        my $colspan = $token->get_attr('colspan');
        if($colspan) {
          push @table, $colspan == 2 ? 'school(s)' : 'description';
        }
      }
