me way.

There is a phpexcelreader project going on sf.net <http://sf.net>. check out there it works fine

Or if you do not want it to be completely automatic, export the .xls file in .csv (comma separated values) and then do the usual file read, line by line. For each line you get use the explode() function with the delimiter you have set and then finally you will get an array of all values per line. Loop through this till the end of the file.

There's fgetcsv() http://www.php.net/fgetcsv
