Excel to HTML Table Converter
Convert Excel files (.xlsx, .xls) to clean HTML tables.
About the Excel to HTML Table Converter
We built this tool to make it incredibly easy to take your data from an Excel spreadsheet and display it on a webpage. Manually coding an HTML table from an Excel file is a slow and error-prone process. This converter automates everything, instantly generating a clean, well-structured HTML table from your `.xlsx` or `.xls` file.
To make this the best tool available, we focused on privacy and power. The entire conversion happens in your browser using the SheetJS library, which means your sensitive spreadsheet data is never uploaded to our servers. It's completely secure. We also included essential features like the ability to choose which sheet to convert from a multi-sheet workbook, and options to customize the output with table headers, IDs, and classes for easy styling.
How to Use the Tool
- Click the upload area to select an Excel file (`.xlsx` or `.xls`), or simply drag and drop your file onto it.
- The tool will process the file and generate an HTML table in the output editor on the right.
- If your Excel file has multiple sheets, a "Select Sheet" dropdown will appear. Choose the sheet you want to convert.
- Use the Options to customize the output:
- Add an ID or Class(es) to your `<table>` element for styling with CSS.
- Toggle "First Row is Header" to correctly generate `<thead>` and `<th>` tags.
- Click "Copy" to copy the generated HTML or "Download" to save it as an `.html` file.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to upload my Excel file?
Yes, 100%. Our tool is designed with privacy as the top priority. The Excel file you select is processed directly in your web browser. Your file and its data are never sent to or stored on our servers, so you can safely convert sensitive or confidential documents.
Does this tool preserve my Excel styling?
No. This tool is designed to extract the raw data from your spreadsheet and convert it into a clean, semantic HTML table. It does not preserve cell colors, font styles, borders, or formulas. The goal is to provide structured HTML that you can then style yourself using CSS.
How do I convert a specific sheet in my workbook?
When you upload an Excel file that contains multiple sheets, a "Select Sheet" dropdown menu will automatically appear in the options panel. Simply select the name of the sheet you want to convert from this list, and the HTML output will update instantly.
What file formats are supported?
This tool supports the most common Excel formats, including `.xlsx` (modern, OpenXML format) and `.xls` (older, binary format). It can also handle other spreadsheet formats like `.ods` (OpenDocument Spreadsheet).
Why would I convert an Excel file to an HTML table?
Converting your Excel data to an HTML table is the standard way to display your spreadsheet on a website. It makes the data accessible to your web visitors, allows it to be styled with CSS to match your site's design, and ensures it's indexed by search engines.
