I would appreciate if any super experts would help to find a solution to extract source code data from a chart found on a website and build a macro to automatically import the data to excel. The website's source code is from: Load Forecast vs. Actual: Current Day

The data to extract is the "Current-Day Forecast" and it has the following format:

HTML:
This data changes daily and I would like a macro automatically import these 24 rows of data and find the ##,### MW number and put it into an Excel Table.

Currently, this data is imported by copying and pasting the data to an Excel Spreadsheet and then the following formula '=VALUE(TRIM(CLEAN(LEFT(RIGHT(A2,19),6))))' extracts the data from each cell to another cell to build the column.

An idea I have is to find the following line of code:<map name="CHART_IMAGE_MAP"> then </map>the following 24 lines of code after this need to be put into the spreadsheet.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
I have excel versions 2007, 2010, and the latest Office 365.
