PowerShell HTML Data Handling

Hi there

I'm writing up a server report script which would be report on a various aspects of server such as disk space, status of some of the services. I would like to add more aspects but before that i'm struggling to get this report comeout in a desired format.

How do i go about eliminating empty rows it is creating so that the format looks better.

Also is there a better way the data could be captured so that i can add more aspects such as get-process etc.

The only problem i have is the detail has to be in the table format

I'm passing a server.txt file which has the list of servers something like this

serverA=testserver

serverB=uatserver

serverC=devserver

serverD=prodserver

Here is my script

$DiskSpaceReportCollection = @()

$BuildMachinesList = $args[0]

$BuildMachines = Get-Content $BuildMachinesList

Foreach ($BuildMachine in $BuildMachines)

{

$Computer = $BuildMachine.SubString(0,15)

$Description = $BuildMachine.SubString(16)

$ReportInfo = New-Object -TypeName PSObject

$ReportInfo | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name "Computer" -Value $Computer

$ReportInfo | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name "Description" -Value $Description

$ReportInfo | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name "DriveName" -Value ""

$ReportInfo | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name "Total Space" -Value ""

$ReportInfo | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name "Remaining Space" -Value ""

$ReportInfo | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name "Percent Free" -Value ""

$ReportInfo | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name "Hudson Services" -Value ""

$ReportInfo | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name "Status" -Value ""
