HXTABLETRANS(1)			HTML-XML-utils		       HXTABLETRANS(1)

NAME
       hxtabletrans - transpose	an HTML	or XHTML table

SYNOPSIS
       hxtabletrans [ -c ] [ -x	] [ -v ] [ file-or-URL ]

DESCRIPTION
       hxtabletrans reads an HTML or XHTML file	(or fragment), finds the first
       <table>	element	 and  outputs  that  element with the rows and columns
       transposed. I.e., rows become columns and columns become	rows.

       Any grouping of rows with <thead>, <tbody> or <tfoot>  is  lost.	 Also,
       any comments outside the	cells are lost.

OPTIONS
       The following options are supported:

       -c	 Also  try  to transpose the contents of cells.	If a cell con-
		 sists only of horizontal  or  vertical	 arrows	 and  ellipses
		 (apart	 from  mark-up	and whitespace), then those arrows and
		 ellipses are replaced by their	transposed counterparts. E.g.,
		 a right arrow becomes a down arrow.

       -x	 Use XML syntax. Empty elements	are written with a  slash  (/)
		 at the	end, e.g.: <br/>

       -v	 Print the version number and exit.

BUGS
       hxtabletrans  should  check  for	 rows  that  have fewer	cells than the
       longest row (taking into	account	the effect of the colspan and  rowspan
       attributes) and create the omitted cells, but it	currently doesn't. Ta-
       bles with rows of unequal length	may thus not be	transposed correctly.

       Nested tables are not transposed.
