    copied!<p>The following example would probably help you:</p> <pre><code> 1 &lt;?php 2 header('Content-type: application/excel'); 3 header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="test.xls"'); 4 ?&gt; 5 6 &lt;table&gt; 7 &lt;tr&gt;&lt;th&gt;Column 1&lt;/th&gt;&lt;th&gt;Column 2&lt;/th&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; 8 &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="font-size:200%"&gt;Answer 1&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="color:#f00"&gt;Answer 2&lt; /td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; 9 &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td colspan="2" style="font-weight:bold"&gt;Answer 3 with 2 columns&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/t r&gt; 10 &lt;/table&gt; </code></pre> <p>Save this as a .php file on your server.</p> <p>What it does is: add headers to force the browser thing you're delivering an Excel file. And then returning a table inside of it. My Excel picks this up perfectly.</p> <p>Note: the sample HTML comes from the answer that you had already found. I have just added the headers to the beginning.</p> <p>Note: You just changed your question and added an example. Your example does NOT use html! You are delivering a TAB-delimited file where each line ends with a newline. </p> <p>The proper way to do this is to really generate HTML, ie, use a <code>&lt;table&gt;</code> at the beginning, use <code>&lt;tr&gt;</code> and <code>&lt;/tr&gt;</code> for each row, and put the fields in <code>&lt;td&gt;</code> tags, and then finish with the closing <code>&lt;/table&gt;</code>, so basically:</p> <pre><code>$data='&lt;table&gt;'; // excel content with overloaded terminals if (mssql_num_rows($resCollection)&gt;0) { while ($rowCollection = mssql_fetch_object($resCollection)) { $data.='&lt;tr&gt;'; $data .= '&lt;td&gt;'.$rowCollection-&gt;Name."&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;".$rowCollection-&gt;Address."&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;" .$rowCollection-&gt;TerminalNotes."&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;".$rowCollection-&gt;TerminalAmount ."&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;".$rowCollection-&gt;DayAmountAll."&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;" .$rowCollection-&gt;LastPaymentTime."&lt;/td&gt;"; $data.='&lt;/tr&gt;'; } } $data.='&lt;/table&gt;'; </code></pre> <p>Then change your last line to:</p> <pre><code>echo iconv('utf-8', 'cp1251', "$data"); </code></pre> <p>If that works I suggest you change the output to have <code>&lt;th&gt;</code> tags around your table headers, instead of the div that is in your example.</p>
