In Finder or on the Desktop. One file, or a whole folder with ⌘ A.
Press ⌥ F
FileFlip opens next to the selection and lists the formats it can make from CSV. Type “HTML table” to jump to it.
Choose HTML table and press Return
The HTML table files appear next to the originals with the same names. The CSV files stay as they are.
CSV and HTML table
CSV has no structure beyond rows and columns, which code and config files often need. An HTML table can go straight into a web page or website editor.
What changes when you convert
- The result is a table you can paste into a web page or website editor.

|---|---|---|
| Best for | Moving tables between spreadsheets, databases and tools | Tables on web pages |

Yes. Select them all in Finder, press ⌥ F and choose HTML table. Progress moves to the menu bar, so you can close the panel and keep working.
