Examples

XLSX to html table

if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse('book.xlsx') ) {
	echo '<table border="1" cellpadding="3" style="border-collapse: collapse">';
	foreach( $xlsx->rows() as $r ) {
		echo '<tr><td>'.implode('</td><td>', $r ).'</td></tr>';
	}
	echo '</table>';
} else {
	echo SimpleXLSX::parseError();
}

XLSX read cells, out commas and bold headers

echo '<pre>';
if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse( 'xlsx/books.xlsx' ) ) {
	foreach ( $xlsx->rows() as $r => $row ) {
		foreach ( $row as $c => $cell ) {
			echo ($c > 0) ? ', ' : '';
			echo ( $r === 0 ) ? '<b>'.$cell.'</b>' : $cell;
		}
		echo '<br/>';
	}
} else {
	echo SimpleXLSX::parseError();
}
echo '</pre>';

XLSX get sheet names and sheet indexes

if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse( 'xlsx/books.xlsx' ) ) {
	print_r( $xlsx->sheetNames() );
}
// Sheet numeration started 0

Array
(
    [0] => Sheet1
    [1] => Sheet2
    [2] => Sheet3
)

Gets extend cell info by ->rowsEx()

print_r( SimpleXLSX::parse('book.xlsx')->rowsEx() );

Select Sheet

$xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse('book.xlsx');
print_r( $xlsx->rows(1) ); // Sheet numeration started 0, we select second worksheet

Get sheet by index

$xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse('book.xlsx');	
echo 'Sheet Name 2 = '.$xlsx->sheetName(1);

XLSX::parse remote data

if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse('http://www.example.com/example.xlsx' ) ) {
	list($num_cols, $num_rows) = $xlsx->dimension(1); // don't dimension trust extracted from xml
	echo $xlsx->sheetName(1).':'.$num_cols.'x'.$num_rows;
} else {
	echo SimpleXLSX::parseError();
}

Debug

ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL );
ini_set('display_errors', 1 );

if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse('books.xlsx', false, true ) ) {
	echo $xlsx->toHTML();
} else {
	echo SimpleXLSX::parseError();
}

Classic OOP style

$xlsx = new SimpleXLSX('books.xlsx');
if ($xlsx->success()) {
	print_r( $xlsx->rows() );
} else {
	echo 'xlsx error: '.$xlsx->error();
}
