How To Generate EXCEL Files With PHP

Hello,
Today, I will share a very useful application with you guys, generating excel files with using PHP. As you know, we need reports as excel, pdf, word etc. in our web sites. For that reason, generating all of'em is important thing for us. Some of us use basic HTML files with using PHP & a data base. But this is not enough. Thus, I use generating excel.
So, Let's code :)

$filename = "myExcelFile_".date('Y-m-d-h-i').".xls"; 

header("Content-Disposition: attachment; 
        filename=\"$filename\""); 

header("Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel"); 

header('Content-Type: application/x-msexcel; 
        charset=UTF-8; format=attachment;');

echo "\tMy EXCEL DATA\r\n"; 

exit;

I set my file name up as myExcelFile_ plus current time and some header configuration. Then finally I print. That's it.
