Paste CSV, get a table. Copy it as HTML if you want.
Sometimes you just need to see your CSV data as a table without firing up Excel. Paste your comma-separated data here, and it renders immediately as a formatted, readable table. First row becomes headers. You can also copy the whole thing as clean HTML table markup.
Not just commas, either. It handles semicolons, tabs (TSV), and pipes as delimiters. Quoted fields with commas inside them? Parsed correctly.
What it does
- Parses CSV, TSV, semicolon-delimited, and pipe-delimited data
- First row becomes column headers automatically
- Handles quoted fields properly (including fields with commas inside)
- Renders a visual table in the browser
- Copy as HTML button gives you complete
<table>markup with<thead>,<tbody>,<tr>,<th>,<td> - Handles hundreds or thousands of rows
- All client-side, your data stays local
Using it
Pick your delimiter from the dropdown. Paste your data. Table appears. Click “Copy as HTML” if you need the markup.
Paste this: name,age,city followed by John,30,New York and Jane,25,London. You get a clean three-column table with proper headers. Takes about two seconds.
When this comes in handy
Quick data viewing: you’ve got a CSV export from a database or analytics platform and you want to glance at the contents. Opening a spreadsheet app for a quick look feels like overkill. Paste it here instead.
Generating HTML tables: need a table on a web page? Paste your data, click Copy as HTML, drop it into your site. Faster than writing table markup by hand, especially for tables with more than a few rows.
Data validation: paste your CSV and visually scan for formatting issues. Missing values and misaligned columns are obvious in table form but nearly invisible in raw CSV.
Documentation: converting data for tech docs, reports, or presentations. A formatted table is always clearer than raw CSV.
TSV handling: tab-separated data from spreadsheet exports. Switch the delimiter to Tab and everything works the same way.
For Markdown table output instead of HTML, check the Markdown Table Generator. For converting CSV to JSON, there’s a dedicated CSV to JSON tool as well.
One important note: if your CSV has commas inside field values, those fields need to be wrapped in double quotes in the source data. The parser respects quoting correctly, but it can’t guess when an unquoted comma is a delimiter vs. part of the data.
FAQ
Does it handle quoted fields?
Yes. Double-quoted fields parse correctly, even when they contain commas, other delimiters, or escaped quotes (doubled double quotes). Follows the standard CSV spec.
My data uses tabs, not commas.
Select “Tab” from the delimiter dropdown. Works identically.
Can I get the HTML code?
Yes. The “Copy as HTML” button gives you a complete table element with proper semantic markup, <table>, <thead>, <tbody>, headers in <th>, data in <td>. Ready to paste into any webpage.
How much data can it handle?
Hundreds to thousands of rows, no problem. It runs in your browser, so very large datasets might render slightly slower, but they’ll work.
Is my data private?
Yes. All parsing and rendering happens client-side. Nothing is transmitted to any server.
