Does it handle entities like & and <?

Yes. Named and numeric HTML entities are decoded back to real characters, and & is resolved last to avoid double-decoding (so < becomes < not <).

What if there are commas inside a cell?

Fields containing the delimiter, a quote, or a newline are wrapped in double quotes with any internal quotes doubled, following RFC 4180.

Which delimiters can I choose?

Comma (standard CSV), semicolon (common in European locales where comma is the decimal mark), tab (TSV), or pipe. The quoting rules adapt to whichever delimiter you pick.

Does it keep the header row?

Yes. Header cells (th) are extracted as the first CSV row just like data cells (td), so your column titles carry through to the spreadsheet.

What happens to nested tags inside a cell?

Inner tags are stripped to their text, and line breaks (br) become spaces, so each cell becomes a single clean text value. Only the cell text survives, not the markup.

Is my data sent anywhere?

No. The table is parsed entirely in your browser with JavaScript — nothing is uploaded.

Turn an HTML table into CSV

Grabbed a table from a web page or report and need it in a spreadsheet? Paste the <table> markup and this tool extracts every row into clean CSV — ready to import into Excel, Google Sheets, or a database.

How it works

The tool parses the markup, finds every table row (tr), and reads each cell (th or td) in order. For each cell it strips inner tags down to their text, converts <br> to spaces, and decodes HTML entities back to real characters (resolving & last so values are not double-decoded). It then builds CSV rows using your chosen delimiter, and applies RFC 4180 quoting: any field containing the delimiter, a double quote, or a newline is wrapped in double quotes, with internal quotes doubled. The CSV updates as you paste or edit.

Example

This markup:

<table><tr><th>Name</th><th>Note</th></tr><tr><td>Ann</td><td>Smith, Jr</td></tr></table>

becomes (comma delimiter):

Name,Note
Ann,"Smith, Jr"

The Smith, Jr cell is quoted because it contains the comma delimiter.

Delimiter	Use
Comma	Standard CSV, Excel/Sheets
Semicolon	European locales
Tab	TSV imports
Pipe	Database/log pipelines

Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
