- file into an HTML table suitable for display with a web browser on the World
- Wide Web or inserted into an HTML file.
-
- CSV files can be easily created from most database and spreadsheet programs
- or created manually in a text editor such as Vi or emacs. The format is
- data followed by a comma and any other number of data on the same line and
- then followed by a new line. Data containing commas should be inclosed in
- quotes (").

- CSV2HTML makes it easy to display data from another program on the web.
