How many stocks/sectors/industries are you looking for data on?
I don't believe that the Yahoo tags include sector or industry information,
but there are other pages within Yahoo which have that data, including the
ability to download lists of stocks for a specific industry into Excel.
If you're trying to do it for the entire market, this is probably not
workable, but if it is for specific sectors or stocks, have a look at these
sector & industry pages:
