When I try to select a part of a text it automatically selects the whole text.
In this text are carriage returns and this i get in my table.
When i export it , i am not able to get these CR's out

Does anyobody have a solution for this?

I think webdesigners are aware of scrapers and combine this text as an object on purpose, so you are not able to extract it as a table with columns.

This text is probably a single HTML element. You can use a text gatherer at Project -> Text Gatherers to split the text or for more advanced stuff a javascript gatherer at Project -> JavaScript Gatherers. Here is some more info on how to use the text gatherers feature.
