Parser does not handle nested tables which also have content

[safranchik]

When parsing certain HTML files, the parser is unable to add to the database all sections that have tables as parents.

I implemented a quick solution by adding two lines of code after line 583 in parser.py, and was able to read the documents. However, this may not be the most efficient solution (if any at all) for creating a corresponding tree structure of the section.

HTML file parsed:
20841.txt

Here's a minimal snippet showing the issue:

<table>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <th class="ssTableHeader" valign="top" rowspan="2" id="PIr03">State</th>
            <th class="ssTableHeader" valign="top" id="PIr13">State of Texas</th>
            <td rowspan="2"></td>
            <td rowspan="2" valign="top" headers="
                PIr03 
                PIr13"> 
            </td>
            <td rowspan="2" valign="top" headers="
                PIr03 
                PIr13 
                PIc5">
                <b>Tamara Y S Keener</b><br>830-997-9542(W)
                <table>
                    <tbody>
                        <tr height="25">
                            <td>&nbsp;</td>
                        </tr>
                    </tbody>
                </table>
                Jay Weinheimer<br>997-2149(W)
            </td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

The challenge here is that there is a nested table within a table cell.
