kicken Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Is it possible to read the content of an excel file with file_get_contents. I tried it a couple times. The result looked like this: Sure, but as you may have noticed excel files are not text files. Your script has to be able to properly understand the format of the data you get back after reading the file. There are a few libraries out that which can process excel files, I'd suggest using one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
