For reading and writing of Excel 97 (.xls) and Excel 2007 (.xlsx) files I'd recommend looking at the PHPExcel project: http://www.codeplex.com/PHPExcel I know it is not PEAR, but they do offer PEAR packages.
are you sure they do excel 97 and up ? Yes, but only write support:
http://www.codeplex.com/PHPExcel/WorkItem/View.aspx?WorkItemId=2841 http://www.codeplex.com/PHPExcel/Wiki/View.aspx?title=Features&referringTitle=Home BTW, read support for Excel 97 files has been proposed to PEAR: http://pear.php.net/pepr/pepr-proposal-show.php?id=492
If so are they PHP 5 and if so do you think you'd be able to convince them to join us ? ;) The last time I looked they code was for PHP5 and uses the PEAR coding standards. It is released under GPL.
David Sanders asked last summer whether they'd move to PEAR, but the lead declined: http://marc.info/?l=pear-dev&m=118407710110186&w=2 Christian
