Have you tried changing your file name to project.htm but continue issuing
the mime headers for excel?

Subject: [PHP] Exporting HTML to Excel


Hi all.

This may not be completely a PHP question, but hopefully you will be 
able to provide some insight. I have a table in HTML that I want to 
export to an excel spreadsheet. Using PHP, I can create an excel 
document - however, it's empty/blank. I think I am just doing it 
incorrectly. Anybody done this before and/or have any ideas? I would 
prefer to NOT use a third-party program.

I've searched the web and php.net, but have been somewhat unsuccessful 
in finding anything. Here's what I have so far:

-------------
<?php
header('Content-Type: application/ms-excel');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="project.xls"'); ?>

<table>
        <tr>
                <td>Something</td>
                </td>Something else</td>
        </tr>
</table>
-------------

I just want it to have that content in the spreadsheet. It's actually 
more involved than that, but that's the gist of it.

Thanks in advance.
~Philip
