To use it: open the HTML file in an editor such as Mozilla's free open-source Seamonkey, view it in HTML mode, highlight and then copy it, paste it into the top window of the converter website, click the Convert button, then highlight and copy it from the bottom window. To place the converted table on a wiki page, click the edit button on that page, position the cursor where you want the table, and paste the table into the edit window and then click Preview to make sure it worked as you wanted.
