You can also choose if you want to include CSS styles in your code.
Tableizer offers very limited customization options. Even some basic attributes with table tag, like: Border, Cellpadding, Cellspacing, etc. are missing. But once the HTML code is generated, you can modify that on your own to customize it further.
The main use of this application is to quickly convert a table in a Excel file to corresponding HTML table.

Get Started With Tableizer:
Follow the link available at the end of this review to reach Tableizer homepage. Main interface is very simple. It offers a text box in which you need to copy the table from your spreadsheet. Below that box, you get six options:
- Font size pop-up list: To select the size of data in table.
- Header Color option: To choose any of your favorite color for header.
- Font style pop-up list: It lets you select the font style. Options on the list are very few.
- No CSS Styles check box: If this option is enabled, this tool will not provide any border in the table. So, personally I would not recommend you to enable it, if you want to generate a good-looking table for your website.
- Tableize It! button: It will generate the HTML code for table.
- Reset button: It will clear the text box and other options will reset to default values.
Now that you are familiar with interface of Tableizer, lets start creating HTML table from spreadsheet.

Conclusion:
If I talk about customization of output table, like adding different colors for each cell, changing font style for a particular cell, etc., then this tool needs to improve a lot. But this tool can be very useful in the case you need to add large spreadsheet data on your website. This is much better than struggling with TR and TD tags again and again. Therefore, my final comment for this service is that it scores well for its ability to read the cells from different spreadsheets and endless table data conversion.
