Hmm.. I just did some more playing, and I solved the problem for me! It
seems that the program did not have write permission to the temp folder
because I was running in safe mode (I found this out by enabling all error
messages with 'error_reporting (E_ALL);'. After I redirected the temp folder
to a place that apache could write to, everything started working. Here's
the final working code:
$workbook = new Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer();
$workbook->setTempDir('/apache_tmp/');
$workbook->send('test.xls');
$worksheet =& $workbook->addWorksheet('Testsheet');
$worksheet->write(0, 0, 'Blah');
$workbook->close();
The Problem was solved by Ben Claar and I would like to thank him for his
help in this matter.
