How to Convert SQL Queries & Dumps to HTML Tables

Whether you have database seed scripts containing INSERT INTO statements or terminal dumps copied directly from the MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQLite CLI, this tool parses records, cleans quoted strings, unescapes characters, and generates semantic HTML5 <table> markup ready for your website or web application.

Terminal Grid Dumps

Easily paste CLI outputs with border grids (+---+---+) from MySQL or psql. The parser automatically strips borders and isolates column data cleanly.

String Unescaping

Single quotes escaped as double apostrophes ('O''Reilly') are correctly restored to natural text and safely sanitized to prevent XSS injection.

Mobile Responsive

Generated tables include responsive wrappers (<div class="table-responsive">) allowing smooth horizontal scrolling on mobile viewports.

Frequently Asked Questions

What SQL formats are supported?

The parser supports standard single-row and multi-row batch INSERT INTO statements, as well as terminal ASCII table grids with +---+---+ boundary borders from MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite.

How are SQL NULL values rendered?

You can configure how NULLs appear using the "NULL As" dropdown: render them as empty cells, literal "NULL" text, a dash "-", or "N/A".

Can I add custom CSS classes like Bootstrap or Tailwind?

Yes. Use the "Table Class" input to specify any class names such as table table-striped table-hover (Bootstrap) or w-full divide-y divide-gray-200 (Tailwind CSS).

Are my SQL databases or query results sent to an external server?

No. All SQL parsing and HTML generation execute 100% locally in your web browser. Zero database queries or text inputs leave your computer.

Can I export a complete standalone HTML document?

Yes. Click the "Full Doc" button or download the generated file to get a self-contained HTML5 webpage with clean embedded CSS styling ready to publish.

User Records SQL INSERT to Responsive HTML Table

Parses SQL INSERT statement, unescapes doubled single quotes ('Bob O''Reilly' to 'Bob O'Reilly'), and generates responsive HTML5 table markup.

SQL INSERT Input Source
INSERT INTO users (id, name, email, role) VALUES
  (1, 'Alice Smith', 'alice@example.com', 'Admin'),
  (2, 'Bob O''Reilly', 'bob@example.com', 'Editor');

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I convert MySQL or PostgreSQL CLI terminal output into HTML tables?
Yes. This tool automatically detects ASCII grid tables with border characters (+---+---+ and | column |) from MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQLite CLI prompts and extracts them into clean HTML tables.
How are escaped single quotes handled in string literals?
The parser correctly recognizes standard SQL doubled single quotes (such as 'O''Reilly Media') and unescapes them to standard single quotes ('O'Reilly Media') in the rendered table cells.
How does the converter handle SQL NULL values?
You can configure NULL representation to display as an empty cell, a literal 'NULL' badge, or a hyphen '-' based on your reporting requirements.
Can I add custom Tailwind or Bootstrap classes to the generated table?
Yes. Simply customize the 'Table CSS Class' field to apply any classes, such as 'table table-striped table-hover' (Bootstrap) or 'w-full text-sm text-left' (Tailwind CSS).
Are my database queries or SQL statements sent to any server?
No. The entire parsing and HTML generation workflow runs 100% client-side in your web browser. Zero SQL data is ever transmitted across the network.
