It sounds to me like your web server is not assigning the correct Content-Type header for .xls files. (This can be confirmed by running htdig with -vvv.) By default, a lot of web servers return a Content-Type of text/plain for unknown file types. The internal parsers of htdig would not be attempting to parse .xls files if they were properly tagged as application/vnd.ms-excel or application/msexcel. -- Gilles R.
