sending an excel spreadsheet to the browser
« on: April 13, 2016, 01:39:45 AM »
I use office inside to create an excel spreadsheet.
it creates an '.xlsx'  file.
I save it into the reports folder with a $$$ prefix.
The webserver sends a '.xls'  file to the browser even though I created a '.xlsx'
I changed the filename so it doesnt have a $$$ prefix when I save it into the reports folder.
The file is saved correctly as eg. $$$xxxxxx.xlsx
but nettalk still sends an .xls file to the browser.
This creates a problem when opening the spreadsheet in excel it give a warning that the file type is incorrect with the contents.
however if I open the .xlsx file directly from the reports folder there is not  problem.
