CSV 2 Table formatter

test

What

This formatter would allow you to convert inline csv data into a table.

Example

The code:

%%(csv)

;***a***;"***b***";***c***

***1***;d;"e";f

#test

***2***;g;;h

***3***;I;J;"K"

Would give this as result:

	a	b	c
1	d	e	f
2	g		h
3	I	J	K

Features

Alternating row background. (hint: only use odd/even lines for a fast alternative layout)

Ignores empty lines or lines starting with an '#' (comments).

To not disturb the alternated layout: add 2 (comment)lines...

The " before and after a cell is auto-removed.

You can make the background darker by wrapping the cell in "***"-tags.

To Do

Add more cell options: alignment, bold, Italic, ...

Find a way to implement a "\n" in a cell (every call to $this->Format() is another include of formatters/wakka.php, so I would like to find another way...)

Fix the ';' in a cell (>,...)

Use more CSS classes

Installation

Copy the code below into a file named formatters/csv.php

And give it the same file permissions as the other files in that directory.

<?php
// convert inline csv data into a table.

$csv_printheader=0;
foreach(split("\n", $text) as $csv_n => $csv_line){
if(preg_match("/^#|^\s*$/",$csv_line)) continue;
if( $csv_printheader == 0){ print "<table cellpadding=\"5\" cellspacing=\"1\"><tbody>\n"; $csv_printheader=1; }
print ($csv_n%2) ? "<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffee\">" : "<tr bgcolor=\"#eeeeee\">";
foreach(split(";", $csv_line) as $csv_nn => $csv_cell){
if(preg_match("/^\s*$/",$csv_cell)){
print "<td> </td>";
}elseif(preg_match("/^(\"?)\*\*\*(.*?)\*\*\*(\"?)$/",$csv_cell,$matches)){
print "<td bgcolor=\"#cccccc\">".
$this->htmlspecialchars_ent($matches[2])."</td>";
}elseif(preg_match("/^(\"?)(.*?)(\"?)$/",$csv_cell,$matches)){
print "<td>".$this->htmlspecialchars_ent($matches[2])."</td>";
}else{
print "<td>".$this->htmlspecialchars_ent($csv_cell)."</td>";
}
}
print "</tr>\n";
}
if( $csv_printheader == 1) print "</tbody></table>\n";
?>
