From tabbed text to HTML splitting the lines

Hi Monks,

I thought somebody might be interested in mine http://dataoniphone.sourceforge.net/

It is in Perl (it's quite simple but it works).

gok8000

Here it is a sample. But please look into Sourceforge if you really want to use it. Greetings!

#
open (INFILEHANDLE, "<table.txt") or die "error opening";
open (OUTFILEHANDLE, ">table.html") or die "error opening";

while (<INFILEHANDLE>) {
  chomp;
  if ($_ eq "") {
    print OUTFILEHANDLE "<B><\/B><BR>\n\n<HR>\n"; # was an empty line
  } else {
    s/\t/ /;   #join 1st & 2nd field (comment this if undesired)
    s/\t/ <\/B><BR>\n/;   # 1st fields will be bold so we have a <\/B>
    s/\t/ <BR>\n/g;  # remaining fields will end with <BR>
    print OUTFILEHANDLE "<B> $_ <BR>\n<HR>\n"; # record separator will
+ be <HR>
  }
}

close INFILEHANDLE;
close OUTFILEHANDLE;

print "\nFile table.html created (press a key)\n";
$line = <STDIN>;

Just in case anyone would like to see it and safe the 4,000 clicks through sourceforge, and unpacking the zip file... update: this made more sense before it was reparented from a dup-node that did not have the sources in it. #!c:/Perl/bin/Perl.exe # # this code was put in the public domain here: # http://sourceforge.net/projects/dataoniphone/ V 0.9.0 04/08/2008 17: +01:00 open (INFILEHANDLE, "<table.txt") or die "error opening"; open (OUTFILEHANDLE, ">table.html") or die "error opening"; while (<INFILEHANDLE>) { chomp; if ($_ eq "") { print OUTFILEHANDLE "<B><\/B><BR>\n\n<HR>\n"; # was an empty lin +e } else { s/\t/ /; #join 1st & 2nd field (comment this if undesired) s/\t/ <\/B><BR>\n/; # 1st fields will be bold so we have a <\/ +B> s/\t/ <BR>\n/g; # remaining fields will end with <BR> print OUTFILEHANDLE "<B> $_ <BR>\n<HR>\n"; # record separator wi +ll be <HR> } } close INFILEHANDLE; close OUTFILEHANDLE; print "\nFile table.html created (press a key)\n"; $line = <STDIN>; [download] -Paul	[reply] [d/l]

There is a CSV module that you can use. Why not use that instead of replacing tabs? http://search.cpan.org/~alancitt/Text-CSV-0.01/CSV.pm	[reply]

Because my data source was tabbed text. Thank you very much for the link anyway :)	[reply]
