"Transpose" ? If you mean "how do I present PHP data as an Excel file
download?" then you can compose tab-delimited content (with lines ending in \r
for some odd reason) and provide it to the browser with an appropriate MIME
type
header("Content-type: application/vendor.ms-excel");
You can use other headers to set the filename, etc. The browser will see this
hint and do whatever it does with spreadsheets (ie open Excel automatically,
use an active-x module to display, offer the user a chance to save the file,
etc.). That's a browser control so you don't have much influence over what
occurs unless you put the content into a zip file or something. That would be
harder (though not impossible) to do automatically.
