[Phpwm] Spreadsheet/Excel/Writer.php

[James Timbrell]

Hi Alan,

How is the .xls file getting to your desktop?

The way I've used Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer is that the excel file gets
generated on the server in a specified directory, and once it's created I
show a hyperlink which the user can then click to download/open the file.

Just wondering what your setup is.

James.
