RE: [PHP] fgetcsv() excel data missing
Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
It shows ÐÏࡱá\\þÿ etc.
source code I used is
$handle = fopen (file.xls,r);
while ($data = fgetcsv ($handle, 1000, ,))
{
$num = count($data);
for ($c=0; $c $num ; $c++)
{
$str_email = $data[$c];
echo $str_email;
}
}

You have to save the .xls file as a .csv file, then you can open and getcsv

RE: [PHP] fgetcsv() excel data missing
Thanks Jay. Could anybody please tell me how to read the data from an excel file ? It should work independent of the operating system. I don't want the csv format.

I don't want the csv format. excel files aren't independent of the OS, csv files are. Excel files need to be parsed, because they contain heaps of formatting data. If you're using php on a windows OS, then you can use COM or .NET to read it in. On other systems however, you'll likely run into problems pretty quickly, and will most probably need to write your own parser routine Binoy __ __ __ __ Sent via the WebMail system at softwareassociates.co.uk --- Scanned by MessageExchange.net (14:20:44 SPITFIRE) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

For your first step, you'll have to convince Microsoft to OpenSource their code... Oh, yeah. You can't do that. :-) -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
