Hello,

I am using code which accesses table data from a webpage. I have gotten the code to display the data values, but each data value is coming out on a separate line. Can someone enlighten me on how to get the 4 column values on one line (row) in this fashion: 
    a1,   a2,   a3,   a4
    b1,   b2,   b3,   b4
              .
              .
              .

I am also wondering if I can somehow 'grab' (save) the literal "Earnings Announcements for: Friday, May 2, 2003" which displays as a title above the table, since the date is crucial. Here is the code I have built so far: 
#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;
use LWP::Simple;
use HTML::TableExtract;

my $url;
$url="http://www.earnings.com/fin/earnListing.jsp?tckr=&exch=&eff=&dat
+e=2003-05-04";
my $content=get $url;
my $te = new HTML::TableExtract( headers =>
        [qw(Company Symbol Estimate Actual)] );
$te->parse($content);

# Examine all matching tables
 foreach my $ts ($te->table_states) {
   print "Table (", join(',', $ts->coords), "):\n";
   foreach my $row ($ts->rows) {
      print join(',', @$row), "\n";
   }
 }

Many thanks
