VSCVTOHTMLVisionX V4 NAME

vcsvtohtml − Create a HTML formatted table from a csv file

SYNOPSIS

vcmap if=csvfile of=htmlfile [m=module] [ci=index] [-h] [-c] [-s] [-v]

DESCRIPTION

Vcsvtohtml Converts a comma separated values (CSV) to a html table or tables suitable for inserting into a web page. By default the via css style sheets are assumed. If two colums are labeled in sequence "case" and "image" and a SIMBA module is specified by m= then callback code is inserted for case, view and module. this callback code is accepted by the SIMBA Application Interface (SAPI) manager. By default it is assumed that the CSV file has a header row that idetifies the columns. Use -h if there is no header row.

CSV values containing commas (,) must be enclosed in double quotes. Currently the use of "" as the representation of a single " in a quoted string is not supported.

As an extension to the CSV data format blank lines are treated in a spcial way. A blank (empty) line is used as a separator between multiple tables. Also if a "table" is a single line, then it is output as plain text and no table structure is created.
