RE: [PHP] PHP to Excel?

Annoying doesn't begin to describe it. I'm going with the HTML/Excel Header bit, since Biffwriter costs way too much for a for-profit business to use. Thanks anyway.. looks pretty neat, and I'll probably use it for some other projects I do. Thanks, Chad -----Original Message----- From: 1LT John W.

The layout on that site is so annoying. Yeah, it looks pretty, but it's annoying. It's PHP2Excel BiffWriter that your looking for on that site. Should be one of the topics when you expand the central "dot" (after you close the "news' popup). annoying... Like someone else said, I just use HTML and send an Excel header(). Works great and it's perfect for simple stuff. I'll probably move to PHP2Excel BiffWriter eventually, though. ---John Holmes... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Martin Lucas" <martin.lucas@techconsult.de> To: "'Chad Day'" <cday@atpco.com>; <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Tuesday, June 18, 2002 11:24 AM Subject: AW: [PHP] PHP to Excel? hi chad, on http://www.cnovak.com/ you'll find a php-class that generates native excel-files, even with cell formatings and other more or less useful things. greetings martin > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Chad Day [mailto:cday@atpco.com] > Gesendet: Dienstag, 18.
