Re: convert wicket pages html to excel
Can you use the XML spreadsheet format? If so, you could perhaps (if your html is clean enough) use XSLT.

Re: convert wicket pages html to excel
I would perhaps try reverse-engineering it (that's what I did). You can save a spreadsheet as XML Spreadsheet and look at the XML (it's not pretty).

Re: convert wicket pages html to excel
It sounds very brittle to take HTML output from an old HTML-generating servlet, cleaning it with a parser, making it valid XML, and then transforming it into different XML which will represent a spreadsheet. Is it really that difficult to obtain the data from the DB, push it into either a) clean xml representing the spreadsheet, or b) directly into jexcel or poi api? -- Jeremy Thomerson http://www.wickettraining.com On Fri, May 7, 2010 at 8:56 AM, fachhoch fachh...@gmail.com wrote: well I will clean my html using htmlparsers and make it well formed xml , are there any example of using xslt to create excel out of xml ? -- View this message in context: http://apache-wicket.1842946.n4.nabble.com/convert-wicket-pages-html-to-excel-tp2131919p2134216.html Sent from the Wicket - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
Re: convert wicket pages html to excel
Well, in my case, it was difficult, because the users wanted to be able to turn *any* page in our application into a spreadsheet representation. Having to maintain two different versions of each page would be a maintenance nightmare, IMHO.

Re: convert wicket pages html to excel
Sometime ago, I have used both POI and jexcelAPI and I do prefer the later. At least at that time, they both had the same limitation: Excel file had to be generated in memory, which could be costly in terms of server side resources. If I recalled it correctly the problem with CSV was MS Excel interpretation of CSV was not the default CSV definition. So, I remember having implemented options to export content the MS way and the default way.
