[[template id=plugin name=table author="[[VictorMoral]]"]]
[[tag type/format]]

This plugin can build HTML tables from data in CSV (comma-separated values)
or DSV (delimiter-separated values) format.

It needs the perl module [[cpan Text::CSV]] for the CSV data.

## examples

	\[[table data="""
	Customer|Amount|
	Fulanito|134,34|
	Menganito|234,56|
	"""]]
    
	\[[table class="book_record" format=csv file="data/books/record1"]]

In this second example the `record1` page should be similar to:

	"Title","Perl Best Practices"
	"Author","Damian Conway"
	"Publisher","O’Reilly"

## usage

* `data` - Values for the table.
* `file` - A file in the wiki containing the data.
* `format` - The format of the data, either "csv", "dsv", or "auto"
  (the default).
* `delimiter` - The character used to separate fields. By default,
   DSV format uses a pipe (`|`), and CSV uses a comma (`,`).
* `class` - A CSS class for the table html element.
* `header` - Set to 0 to make a table without a header. By default,
  the first data line is used as the table header.
