CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is a plain text file format used to store tabular data. Each line represents a row, and commas are used to separate the values in each column. It is a universal format for exchanging data.

A delimiter is the character used to separate columns in your data. While comma (,) is standard, some files use semicolons (;) or tabs. You can change this option to match your file's format.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is CSV?

CSV stands for Comma-Separated Values. It's a plain text format for storing tabular data, where each line is a row and commas separate the values in each column. It's a universal format for exchanging data between spreadsheet applications and databases.

Why convert CSV to an HTML table?

Converting CSV to an HTML table is the standard way to display spreadsheet-style data on a website. While CSV is great for storing data, browsers can't render it. You need to convert it to an HTML `<table>` so that web visitors can view the data in a clean, organized grid.

How does the tool handle commas or quotes within the data?

Our tool uses a professional CSV parsing library that understands the official CSV format. If a value in your data contains a comma, it must be enclosed in double quotes (e.g., `"Smith, John"`). Our parser handles this automatically, ensuring your data is correctly placed into its own table cell without breaking the layout.

What is a Delimiter?

A delimiter is the character used to separate the columns in your data. While comma (`,`) is the most common, some files use semicolons (`;`), tabs (`\t`), or other characters. If your table looks wrong, try changing this option to match your file's format.

Is my data private?

Yes, absolutely. The entire conversion process from CSV to HTML happens on your computer within your browser. Your data is never sent to our servers, so you can safely use this tool with sensitive information.
