# HTML table to Markdown

Paste HTML that contains a table, or copy a table straight from a web page, and get a clean Markdown table. Merged cells are expanded and footnote markers are removed.

## How it works

### Paste the HTML

Paste the source of the table, or select the table on a web page, copy it and paste it here.

### Check the result

Open the preview to see how rowspan and colspan were expanded.

### Copy the Markdown

Copy the table or switch to CSV or JSON.

## Questions

### Can I paste a table copied from a website?

Yes. Select the table on the page, copy it and paste it here. Your browser puts the HTML of the table on the clipboard and the converter reads that.

### What happens with colspan and rowspan?

Merged cells are expanded so every row has the same number of columns, which is what a Markdown table needs. The value is repeated in each position.

### There are several tables in my HTML.

The largest table is converted. To convert another one, paste only that table.

### Is my data uploaded?

No. The conversion runs in JavaScript on this page, on your own computer. There is no account and nothing you paste is sent to a server. Once the page has loaded it keeps working without an internet connection.
