Convert data into excel format

What I meant was from the user's point of view.

 

For the project I am working on, one of my requirements is to save selected data in excel format.

The end-user selects the data to be printed or saved.

And I need the code for the same.

 

 

It is not from the admin's point of view.

 

Sorry if I didn't mention it.

You can do this a number of ways using PHP...

 

Look at fwrite

 

[example]...

$f = fopen('/tmp/data.csv', 'a'); //<< in 'a' append mode
fwrite($f, 'line of data 1'); //<< you will have to loop through this line
fclose($f); // close handle

 

Or using a MYSQL query...

 

[example]...

SELECT field1,field2,field3
FROM table
INTO OUTFILE '/tmp/data.csv'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
