How To Convert Carriage Return In Mysql To Excel Format?
I have a varchar field in MySQL table that has carriage returns. I am trying to display this field in an Excel document. When I display this using (php_writeexcel class ) Excel I get small squares due to Excel converting the carriage returns.
Is there a way to convert these carriage returns to display properly. I have already tried str_replace("","",$value) and does not work. Any regular expressions?

Need To Convert Mysql To Excel?
I need to display data from MySQL to Excel format. I looked at several excel classes, but they are missing three things that I need. 1. To be able to output a cell larger than 255 characters. 2. Be able to keep line breaks in cells. 3. be able to format the cell widths I am currently using a tab delimited set up with excel http headers, but I can not format the cell widths.
Carriage Return
I am trying to write information to a file which will be then used to be imported into Excel. I noticed that some of the values that I am retrieving from a database have some sort of carriage return in them so after I have dumped the results to a database with a delimiter, some of the fields break the import because excel thinks its a new line. I've tried to replace chr(13) chr(10), , etc and I am not sure which one it is. The data that goes into the database is from simple textarea in an HTML form where the user can type whatever they want into it and use the enter key for w newline. Since nl2br() works with the database fields, I am assuming it reads the chr() value but which one is it I should be looking at to replace? Chr(10), Chr(13) combination of the two?
Carriage Return In Php
I have a querry that returns a number of values the following code cats them together: while ($obj = $result->fetch_object()) { $desc = $desc.$obj->pdesc.chr(13); } unfortunatly the chr(13) does not produces a line break between values as I expected. So........ how can this bit of code be changed to include a line break??
Php Won't Recognize A Carriage Return
php 4.3.6 windows xp i need to read a file and match a regular expressions with this pattern: " title" preg_match($title_reg, $line, $resB); $find_reg=" $resB[0]"; if (ereg($find_reg, $line2)) echo $resb[0]; now if i put this pattern in powergrep 2.3.2 it recognizes it. however if i try to use this pattern in my php script i get bupkis nada nothing zero. i've tried putting the carriage return in () and in [] but i get nothing still. when i print the pattern to my browser i see a space in front of my title showing me that php is recognizing something but it does not print the so i'm pretty sure that is why i'm not getting a match.now i know these are not printable characters but they are in a string so they should print to the screen. So my assumption is that php is erasing or translating /r/n into something so that it does not match my pattern.

RegExp - Removing Newline/carriage Return In Data Entry/form Field
I have a database generated calendar (written in php) which puts the contents of one of the fields in a javascript mouseover popup ( Carriage Driving World and select "Calendar" from top menu) which is populated by event organizers entering data via a form. Some people are putting line feeds in their EventDesc (field used for javascript mouseover popup) which screws up the javascript, where linefeeds/newlines aren't allowed. The best solution I can think of is to either remove the linefeeds before the data gets stuffed into the database or when the data is presented to the javascript coding. Here's where I need help. What RegExp string do I use to pull linefeeds/returns? Some of teh entries have more than one which needs removed.

Excel To MySQL
I currentley use Navicat for most of my Excel to MySQL conversions. But I would like to get this web based. Ideally the user would submit a standard .xls via a form upload. Now here is the complex part. The file has 6 spreadsheets in it. Each spreadsheet has different columns and some of those columns need to go into different tables. So it's NOT just xls to one mysql table. It's actuallt one xls file with numerous spreadsheets going into different MySQL tables based on the column names.
Excel > XML > MySQL

So far I have only been able to find sites that offer tools to do it, but I want to use an upload form instead.

Data From MySQL Into CSV For Excel?
I've a survey form that I need to get data from and put into a mySQL database. Easy, can do it eyes closed. But, then I need to be able to take that same information and convert it (either directly or pulling it back out from the database) into a CSV (or any file for that matter) that can be easily imported, added into an existing Excel database. I've no idea how to do that. (I can query the database, that I can do, and create recordsets, AND create text files, but I've never created a CSV file before.) Is there a source, a good Web site for example, that explains that kind of process pretty well?
