Hi Gurus, Kindly someone help me with the code for the following action. I have a file which has data in the following format:

some lines of code
blah blah
blah blah

Name: joe
age: 23
phone: 3423423

Name: sam
age: 23
phone: 4343433

Name: ram
age 45
phone: 34234232

some more lines..
blah blah..

[download]

Now I need to read the above file only the section containing the users data i.e Name, age, phone and print them to a html table in a html file which has Name, age and phone as coloumn headers and the consequtive values for each block as the coloumn values.

Any help with code is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
