excel file format is proprietary,
excel can read/write .csv comma separated values
php can read/write .csv comma separated values

a bunch of tutorials on creating the button to do so http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=php+export+mysql+table+as+.csv+tutorial&meta= have no idea how myself

above code is not working

[almostbob]

.xls is proprietary and contains more than just the data, not sure if your functions are accurate, but they appear to match what I have seen before

excel can read/write .csv comma separated values
php can read/write .csv comma separated values
which is great if the data is all you need, not sure if equations transfer

a bunch of tutorials on creating writing .xls with phphttp://www.google.com/search?php .xls tutorial have no idea how myself

(Good Luck)

Try a couple of PEAR files:

Should work.

Excel can read HTML and open it as a spreadsheet. My Desktop Write utility takes advantage of this to create Excel, Word and other types of output. Get it here:
