Google Spreadsheet remove a specific character from an array

Question:

( by yogert909 )

I have an array that contains a lot of asterisks that I need to remove.  Is it possible to do this on an array?  
regexreplace and substitute don't work on arrays.  is there a way to loop through each element in an array..?
Thanks

Solution:

Instead of having formula:
=importhtml("http://finance.yahoo.com/q/op?s=SZYM&m=2013-09","table",14)


Try the following formula:
=arrayformula(iferror(value(substitute(importhtml("http://finance.yahoo.com/q/op?s=SZYM&m=2013-09","table",14),"*",""));importhtml("http://finance.yahoo.com/q/op?s=SZYM&m=2013-09","table",14)))

Have a look at the following screenshot:

In the above sheet, I have the following formula in Cell A16:

=arrayformula(iferror(value(substitute(importhtml("http://finance.yahoo.com/q/op?s=SZYM&m=2013-09","table",14),"*",""));importhtml("http://finance.yahoo.com/q/op?s=SZYM&m=2013-09","table",14)))
