I’m building a table script and one of the functionalities is to convert XML, CSV data to HTML and vice-versa.
I found some similar scripts on the web, that converts CSV to HTML and vice-versa but didn’t find for XML.
I’m writing the script from scratch, but I thought I’d better read few scripts before I write my own, to avoid mistakes and bugs. My question is, do you have/know a script that does this work?
Also any other advice, comment or idea is appreciable. Thanks!
(Note: I use jQuery as Framework)
CSV to html is easy assuming the columns are fixed, HTML to CSV is tricky if the earlier assumption fails. XML to HTML is not straight forward – reasons: 1. name spaces 2. multi-valued data ( forget absence of schema or DTD). Retaining commutative property is not easy without making trade-offs.
