Subject: Need to parse a HTML table into an Array/hash

I am new to ruby; having a lot of fun, but currently I am stuck with the
following.

I want to read this page

http://finance.yahoo.com/q/op?s=AAPL&k=95.00&m=2007-12

Into an array or hash.

I found the gem yahoo-finance; but that does not what I need.
I need to find the Symbol for (in this example)
AAPL call option strike 95 Dec-07.



I am able to read the page:
 conn = open("http://finance.yahoo.com/q/op?s=AAPL&m=2008-04")
     lines = conn.read

The main question is how to I parse the table which is in the middle of
the HTML.

Any help is appreciated!!
