Description

This PHP script opens and parses a CSV table file to an HTML view. It can be used together with the Internet of Things Web Logger Logger script.

Features

• Refresh, Download and Up/Bottom links.
• Line numbers.
• Header and footers with the column names.
• Ready for CSS customization.
• If a password is set, the GET parameter ?Password=yourpassword will be required to read the data. Example: http://www.mysite.com/csvview.php?Password=yourpassword.

Requirements

• Webserver with PHP 5.1.x or higher installed.
• Permissions for the script to read the CSV file.

Installation

Just edit the script configuration parameters (the CSV file name is the only required) and then put in the server and run.
