how to export excel file in same server

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

My first post - php newbie, so appreciate your support.

I'm currently using headers to save web page as excel file.

$filename="sms.xls";
header("Pragma: public");
header("Expires: 0");
header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header("Cache-Control: public");
header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
header("Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel");
$header="Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".$filename.";";
header($header);
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
@readfile($file);

I want to be able to save a copy to the server not to opening dialog save?
Not sure what I need to change or add to achieve this?

Have looked around and tried searching on here? - can't see the search threads feature if there is one?

Many thanks
