Importing and Exporting

  • Excel files are a pain in the butt
    • Possibly the The Chicago Project [1]. It seems incomplete and is written in C.
    • XLHTML seems like a converter
    • Also is it worth supporting now that it's obsolete (people still use it)??
  • But CSV seems a lot nicer
    • fgetcsv is a built in PHP function to turn it into an array which we can process
  • Excel 2007 files are XML-based so we can support that along with XML
    • It's the wave of the future!
