NAME
       pamtohtmltbl - convert pnm/pam visual image to an HTML table

SYNOPSIS
       pamtohtmltbl [-transparent=color] [-verbose] [file]

       Minimum	unique	abbreviation of option is acceptable.  You may use double hyphens instead of single hyphen to denote
       options.	 You may use white space in place of the equals sign to separate an option name from its value.

DESCRIPTION
       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pamtohtmltbl converts a visual image to an HTML table with one cell per pixel.  The cell is empty, but its background
       color is that of the pixel.

       file is a PBM, PGM, PPM, or PAM file.  If PAM, it must be a standard visual image of tuple type	RGB,  GRAYSCALE,  or
       BLACKANDWHITE,  or something equivalent with extra higher numbered channels, but pamtohtmltbl doesn't check the tuple
       type; it just assumes.

       Note that the more normal way to include a visual image in an HTML document is with a  tag.

       Not all web browsers render tables as pamtohtmltbl expects, and therefore show a grossly distorted  image.   Internet
       Explorer	 7  on Windows and Opera 9.02 on Windows have been seen to work; Firefox 2.0.0.16 on the same Windows system
       has been seen not to.

OPTIONS
       In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (most notably  -quiet,  see	  Common Options  ),
       pamtohtmltbl recognizes the following command line options:

       -transparent=color
	      This  option  indicates that pixels of the specified color are to be transparent in the HTML table.  The table
	      cell for a pixel of this color will have no background color specified.

	      Specify the color (color) as described for the argument of the pnm_parsecolor() library routine .

       -verbose
	      This option causes pamtohtmltbl to display messages about the conversion process.

HISTORY
       pamtohtmltbl was new in Netpbm 10.15 (April 2003).

AUTHORS
       Alexander B. Ivanov (SSH) wrote a program he called pnm2html.  Bryan Henderson adapted it to use the Netpbm libraries
       and handle PAM images and follow Netpbm conventions, and named it pamtohtmltbl.
