If you have ever wanted to format data from a database into a web format then you have experienced the added difficulty of working with HTML. For this week’s blog we are going to be taking a look at Legato’s HTML Writer object.

In order to show the HTML Writer object, we will convert a CSV file to HTML but the data source could easily be adapted to any file format or database.

Instead of having to check all the files, you can run this script and have it print a list of the files that need to be reviewed.
