get_colspans

cells

a character vector that provides information used in the XPath expression to extract the correct elements

htmltab is a package for extracting structured information from
    HTML tables. It is similar to readHTMLTable() of the XML package but provides
    two major advantages. First, the package automatically expands row and
    column spans in the header and body cells. Second, users are given more
    control over the identification of header and body rows which will end up
    in the R table. Additionally, the function preprocesses table code, removes
    unneeded parts and so helps to alleviate the need for tedious post-processing.
