    url = f"https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/AAPL?p={sym}&.tsrc=fin-srch"
    tables = get_html_tables(url)
    for num, table in enumerate(tables, start=1):
        print()
        box = (gtable(table, 'hdr', 'prnt', title=f"Table {num} sym: {sym}", footer=dbug('here'), cols_limit=5, col_limit=20))
        boxes.append(box)
lines = gcolumnize(boxes, cols=2)
printit(lines, 'boxed', 'centered', title=f"Symbol: {sym} url: {url}", footer=dbug('here'))
```
