with beautifulsoup, how to reference the first table after a given form

Question

I want to drill down into my html, specifically I want to get the first html table that is AFTER a form that looks like:

<form method="POST" action="/parts.html">

..

<table ...>
...

</table>

..

</form>

So this table has <tr> for each product.

My utlimate goal here is to loop through each tablerow, and then I need to extract the product name, price, image url, etc.

What should my strategy be, and what methods in beautiful soup should I be focusing on?
