Hi, is it possible to export mysql data to an excel spreadsheet? By
PHP and with a structured, nice layout?

If the data isn't complicated, I'd go for a simple csv. If there are more
requirements, google 'php excel export': a huge list of possibilities.

... which could better and shorter (fputcsv) as:

//not sure about this first header, but I'll assume it's correct
header('Content-type: application/vnd.ms-excel');
header('Content-Disposition: download; filename=3D"download.csv"');
$results =3D mysql_query('select * from tablename');
while($row =3D mysql_fetch_row($results)) fputcsv(STDOUT, $row);
-- =
