header("Content-type: application/msword; filename=stuff. doc");
//header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=stuff. doc");
echo $stuff;
However, upon attempting to run this script I ran into the following
error in IE:
Internet Explorer could not open this script: test.php (note: I am
trying to change it to be "stuff.doc" ). Nothing ever showed up.
test.php (the code you see) is in a Linux environment in a folder
protected by .htaccess.
In NS 7.0 it produces no errors but it tries to save the downloaded
file as "test.php" and not "stuff.doc" .
I am unsure how to do this in PHP although I can do it in TCL and have
done it that way before, that, however, is not an option here.
Please help, I'm stuck at the very beginning of attempting customized
simple reporting.
Thank You,

I do not know if this has anything to do with IE not being able to open
the document, but why do you specify a content-type of
"applicatio n/msword" when the document seems to be an HTML-document?

hi,
i simply wants to convert html string to csv/xls file..i hv tried
$stuff = '<html><head><t itle>stuff</title></head><body><b>H ello</b>

header("Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel");
header("Expires : 0");
header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");

this would ask to save as xls file...but while opening that xls file

Excel needs binary!

What did you want, a csv or a Excel File?
If you need csv you could write it like a normal textfile, if you want
to get a excel file, try the Excel_Spreadshe et_Writer from the PEAR package.

csv->Comma Separated Values!!!
Therfor you will need a seperate script or code for generating this csv.
Changing the header will only inform the browser about the content of
the output.
So what should excel do with a file wich contains html-code?
-Kirsten
Shailesh,
Setting the content-type header to "applicatio n/msword" should make the browser open the file as a Word document. This isn't a problem as Word understands HTML (more or less), however it's no use for outputting an Excel spreadsheet.
CSV is the way to go here and as Kirsten said, a CSV file is just data seperated by commas - easy to output with a simple script once you understand the structure. Try saving an excel spreadsheet as a CSV file, then open the CSV file in notepad to see how the data is formatted - this should give you a good idea of what your script needs to output.
Theoretically it would be possible to have a similar script to format your data into a valid .xls file, however this would be a MAJOR pain as .xls is a binary file format. Go with CSV.

i need to convert a unicode string to ascii string (in order to put it in

right now the string gets to the page, but when the url clicked (with the

destination but showing יפור אהבה בלתי שכח" as the value
it got from the url.
so i need probably to convert it to ascii, but how?
