Convert CSV to HTML Table

Want to display your spreadsheet data on a website? Converting CSV to HTML tables is the standard approach.

The HTML Table Structure

A proper HTML table includes semantic elements:

<table>
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>Name</th>
      <th>Price</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <td>Widget</td>
      <td>$9.99</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

Why Use HTML Tables?

  • Universal support - Works in all browsers
  • SEO friendly - Search engines understand table data
  • Accessible - Screen readers can navigate tables
  • Styleable - Apply any CSS design

Styling Your Table

The generated HTML is unstyled by default. Add CSS:

table {
  border-collapse: collapse;
  width: 100%;
}

th,
td {
  border: 1px solid #ddd;
  padding: 12px;
  text-align: left;
}

th {
  background-color: #10b981;
  color: white;
}

tr:nth-child(even) {
  background-color: #f9fafb;
}

Character Escaping

HTML has special characters that must be escaped:

CharacterHTML Entity
<&lt;
>&gt;
&&amp;
"&quot;

Our converter handles this automatically so your data displays correctly.
