| Description | HTML allows creating structured documents and web pages. HTML file contains command tags in angular brackets that mark out each element like title, paragraphs, quotes, links, lists, etc. Web-pages generated with HTML have .html extension (for a static web-page). HTML code is processed by a browser, while user sees only the text and other elements of the page without any tags. The source code can be viewed separately. HTML files can be edited in a common text editor like a TXT file. |

HTML pages and files frequently contain tabular data — financial reports, sports statistics, product comparisons, price lists, scientific datasets, government data — structured in <table> elements that look like spreadsheets in a browser but cannot be edited, sorted, or calculated without extraction. Converting HTML to Excel parses the table structure and produces a proper .xls or .xlsx spreadsheet with each table column mapped to a spreadsheet column. The result opens directly in Excel or Google Sheets for filtering, pivot tables, formulas, and further analysis — no copying and pasting, no manual reformatting.
