In other words, if you need PHPExcel to handle .xlsx or .ods files you will need the zip extension, but otherwise not. Installation instructions ------------------------- Installation is quite easy: copy the contents of the Classes folder to any location in your application required. Example: If your web root folder is /var/www/ you may want to create a subfolder called /var/www/Classes/ and copy the files into that folder so you end up with files: /var/www/Classes/PHPExcel.php /var/www/Classes/PHPExcel/Calculation.php /var/www/Classes/PHPExcel/Cell.php ... Getting started --------------- A good way to get started is to run some of the tests included in the download. Copy the "Tests" folder next to your "Classes" folder from above so you end up with: /var/www/Tests/01simple.php /var/www/Tests/02types.php ... Start running the test by pointing your browser to the test scripts: http://example.com/Tests/01simple.php http://example.com/Tests/02types.php ... Note: It may be necessary to modify the include/require statements at the beginning of each of the test scripts if your "Classes" folder from above is named differently.
