JavaScript - Activex - Export To Excel Question
Hi Chaps,
I have some Javascript code, that sucessfully exports Project data from an HTML table to an Excel SpreadSheet: Code: function ExportToExcel() { var xlApp = new ActiveXObject("Excel.Application"); // Silent-mode: xlApp.Visible = true; xlApp.DisplayAlerts = false; var xlBook = xlApp.Workbooks.Add(); xlBook.worksheets("Sheet1").activate; var XlSheet = xlBook.activeSheet; XlSheet.Name="Project Details"; // Store the sheet header names in an array var rows = tbldisplay.getElementsByTagName("tr"); var columns = tbldisplay.getElementsByTagName("th"); var data = tbldisplay.getElementsByTagName("td"); //run over the dynamic result table and pull out the values and insert into corresponding Excel cells var d = 0; for (r=4;r<rows.length+3;r++) { // start at row 2 as we've added in headers - so also add in another row! for (c=1;c<columns.length+1;c++) { XlSheet.cells(r,c).value = data[d].innerText; d = d + 1; } } //autofit the columns XlSheet.columns.autofit; // Make visible: xlApp.visible = true; xlApp.DisplayAlerts = true; CollectGarbage(); //xlApp.Quit(); } As you can see, a new workbook is created and the data is exported to Excel ("Sheet1"). What I want to do is as soon as this export is complete, redirect to a seperate page, where the Jobs (linked to the Project) details are exported to Excel ("Sheet2"), without creating a new workbook. Is this do-able? Similar TutorialsHi Chaps, I have a Javascript ActiveX function that exports the contents of an HTML table into MS Excel. The script works fine, however, some of the dates have changed from dd/mm/yyyy to mm/dd/yyyy. I do not know why this is happening, especially as it's only to a few. Here is the code: Code: <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> function ExportToExcel() { input_box=confirm("Export to Microsoft Excel?"); if (input_box==true) { var xlApp = new ActiveXObject("Excel.Application"); // Silent-mode: xlApp.Visible = true; xlApp.DisplayAlerts = false; var xlBook = xlApp.Workbooks.Add(); xlBook.worksheets("Sheet1").activate; var XlSheet = xlBook.activeSheet; XlSheet.Name="Report"; // Store the sheet header names in an array var rows = tblreport_work.getElementsByTagName("tr"); var columns = tblreport_work.getElementsByTagName("th"); var data = tblreport_work.getElementsByTagName("td"); // Set Excel Column Headers and formatting from array for(i=0;i<columns.length;i++){ XlSheet.cells(1).value= "Projects - Open"; XlSheet.cells(3,i+1).value= columns[i].innerText; //XlSheetHeader[i]; XlSheet.cells(3,i+1).font.color="6"; XlSheet.cells(3,i+1).font.bold="true"; XlSheet.cells(3,i+1).interior.colorindex="37"; XlSheet.Range("B1:F1000").HorizontalAlignment = -4108; XlSheet.Range("H1:H1000").HorizontalAlignment = -4108; XlSheet.Range("J1:J1000").HorizontalAlignment = -4108; } //run over the dynamic result table and pull out the values and insert into corresponding Excel cells var d = 0; for (r=4;r<rows.length+3;r++) { // start at row 2 as we've added in headers - so also add in another row! for (c=1;c<columns.length+1;c++) { XlSheet.cells(r,c).value = data[d].innerText; d = d + 1; } } //autofit the columns XlSheet.columns.autofit; // Make visible: xlApp.visible = true; xlApp.DisplayAlerts = true; CollectGarbage(); //xlApp.Quit(); } } </script> Date Columns: F,G,I If anyone has some ideas on how to correct this, I'd be most grateful! Hi, I have a code written in Javascript to export to Excel. It is not working for my PC as open office is installed in it.

Hi Chaps, I have JavaScript code, that exports a HTML table to MS Excel. This works fine on my development (local) server, however, it fails to work on my 'live' IIS server. Once I click on the Export link, I confirm the "Export to Microsoft Excel?" message, then nothing happens. I am not sure if MS Excel needs to be installed on the server or not?

The problem comes when AcitveX is disabled as it still returns the same message that it's not installed. I would prefer to be able to include an extra step to detect if ActiveX is disabled, in which case I can tell the user to enable it rather than giving them false advice. My only idea would be to detect for an ActiveX Object that every IE user should have installed. Any ideas on what that ActiveX Object could be or any ideas on how I could tackle this problem are greatly appreciated. Thanks Hi, Is there any way to use the activeX to execute a local aplication with parameters... Example: PHP Code: <script> var ws = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell"); ws.Exec("c:\\windows\\notepad.exe"); </script> Hi I'm using an ActiveX control in my html page.. Each time i load the page ie pops a message box to allow the activex to run or not . Is there any way to handle that message box using javascript. Or is there any other way to avoid that message box because each time the page loads i have to give yes and then proceed. By default i've to give yes is there any way to handle that using javascript. help me out please... I have a program written in Javascript (saved as an HTML file that I run from my desktop by launching it in IE) which works fine on my system. Running IE 8 in Vista on one system and XP on another. When I launch the file, I get warning in the information bar: "To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this webpage from running scripts or ActiveX cntrols that could access your computer. Click here for optons..." I actually WANT this warning. When I click through it to accept, the program works fine. But about half of the people that I share this program with are not getting this warning, and it appears that the javascript never runs. At first I thought it was something in Windows 7, because two of the users were running on that OS, and I've found a number of issues described online about having problems running scripts in IE8/Win7. But the latest user is also running Vista, like me. His security settings are set to the default, Medium-High. But he's still not getting the script/ActiveX warning in the message bar. Anyone know how we can enable that warning? Thanks! I have an html file I've built with embedded Javascript (using ActiveX) that successfully reads a file on my local hard drive when I run the html file through my web browser (IE) locally. However, when I copy the html page up to a webserver and access it through the internet, it doesn't appear to be reading the local file. I'm assuming this can't be done because of security reasons? Am I correct in that? Is there any way using Javascript/ActiveX that you can get a webpage on the internet to access a file on the visitor's local drive? (other than cookies)
Hi All, Need some urgent. We are having a javascript which is throwing the foll error "Object doesn't support this property or method". The javascript function being called is using a Scanner API. So this is using some ActiveX. Below is the code for javascript <script language="javascript"> // Initialize scanning function OnLoad() { try { Scanner.OpenScanner(); // Scanner.ScanPriority = 0; // Set scanner to Foreground Read mode before enable scanning // Scanner.EnableScanning(1); document.forms["mobileform"]["rm07m-bwartwe[1]"].value = "101"; } catch (e) { alert(e.message); } } // Clean up function OnUnload() { Scanner.CloseScanner(); // Calling Dispose is necessary for Pocket IE because of a Microsoft issue related to releasing object. if (navigator.appName == "Microsoft Pocket Internet Explorer") Scanner.Dispose(); } // Scan through soft trigger function Scan() { try { Scanner.SetSoftTrigger(1); } catch (e) { alert(e.message); } } //User-defined function to format error codes. //VBScript has a Hex() function but JScript does not. function hex(nmb) { if (nmb > 0) return nmb.toString(16); else return (nmb + 0x100000000).toString(16); } </script> There is a object tag in html <object id="Scanner"></object> The javascript functions are called from body tag. Can someone please provide some help. Thanks, Nikhil Hi guys, here again with another question. I would parse a file, my js read fine an html file, but this one is an export from msword. I don't know if this is the problem. I can't change the file. here is how my js read: Code: <body> <input type='button' value='Load' onclick="doLoad()" /> <script type='text/javascript'> /* THIS IS THE FILE TO READ */ var fileToRead="test.html"; /* THIS FUNCTION IS TO READ THE HTML FILE */ function IO(U) {//LA MOD String Version. A tiny ajax library. by, DanDavis var X = !window.XMLHttpRequest ? new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLHTTP') : new XMLHttpRequest(); X.open('GET', U, false ); X.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'text/html') X.send(''); return X.responseXML;} function doLoad(){ /* HERE IS THE CALL TO READ THE FILE */ var orari=(IO(fileToRead)); var arrTR=orari.getElementsByTagName('tr'); var arrTD_3nd_line=arrTR[1].getElementsByTagName('td'); var arr_p_1c_3l=arrTD_3nd_line[0].getElementsByTagName('p'); alert(arr_p_1c_3l[0].nodeValue); } </script> and here is a snip of the html i read: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:w="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"> <meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"> <meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 10"> <meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 10"> <link rel="File-List" href="orarioinvernale_file/filelist.xml"> <title>ORARI </title> <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:DocumentProperties> <o:Author>Ufficio Stampa</o:Author> <o:Template>Normal</o:Template> <o:LastAuthor>Ufficio Stampa</o:LastAuthor> <o:Revision>4</o:Revision> <o:TotalTime>1</o:TotalTime> <o:Created>2005-11-28T12:25:00Z</o:Created> <o:LastSaved>2006-01-13T10:24:00Z</o:LastSaved> <o:Pages>1</o:Pages> <o:Words>762</o:Words> <o:Characters>4344</o:Characters> <o:Company>mycomp</o:Company> <o:Lines>36</o:Lines> <o:Paragraphs>10</o:Paragraphs> <o:CharactersWithSpaces>5096</o:CharactersWithSpaces> <o:Version>10.2625</o:Version> </o:DocumentProperties> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:WordDocument> <w:SpellingState>Clean</w:SpellingState> <w:GrammarState>Clean</w:GrammarState> <w:HyphenationZone>14</w:HyphenationZone> <w:BrowserLevel>MicrosoftInternetExplorer4</w:BrowserLevel> </w:WordDocument> </xml><![endif]--> <style> <!-- /* Font Definitions */ @font-face {font-family:"Comic Sans MS"; panose-1:3 15 7 2 3 3 2 2 2 4; mso-font-charset:0; mso-generic-font-family:script; mso-font-pitch:variable; mso-font-signatu 647 0 0 0 159 0;} /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin:0cm; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} p {mso-margin-top-alt:auto; margin-right:0cm; mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; margin-left:0cm; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} span.SpellE {mso-style-name:""; mso-spl-e:yes;} span.GramE {mso-style-name:""; mso-gram-e:yes;} @page Section1 {size:595.3pt 841.9pt; margin:70.85pt 2.0cm 2.0cm 2.0cm; mso-header-margin:35.4pt; mso-footer-margin:35.4pt; mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} --> </style><!--[if gte mso 10]> <style> /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Tabella normale"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman";} </style> <![endif]--> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="it"> <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:shapedefaults v:ext="edit" spidmax="4098"/> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:shapelayout v:ext="edit"> <o:idmap v:ext="edit" data="1"/> </o:shapelayout></xml><![endif]--> </head> <body style="" bgcolor="#ccffff" lang="IT"> <div class="Section1"> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <table class="MsoNormalTable" style="width: 100%;" border="1" cellpadding="0" height="1733" width="100%"> <tbody> <tr style="height: 75.75pt;"> .... and so on.... the problem is that my error console (from firefox) when i click my read button (not when i load the page) gives me errors: Code: sintax error: source: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> if i comment this it give me: Code: missing tag </meta> source: </head> and if i put Code: </meta> another meta is required and so on.

I have this idea that I want to do basically a "state capture" of a web page through javascript. Basically, a user will click a button, and the script will run, capturing all objects and their styles in a way that can be recreated later without referencing external CSS files and images. The script could export HTML or JS, but obviously all images would have to be data urls and all styles would have to be inline/hard coded. Does anyone know of a tool that do this or have any advice on where I would start? I'm thinking it would be very useful for a bug report submission on an application I'm working on. Sure, the user can upload a screenshot, but I'm trying to save them the step (and basically have a screenshot on every bug report). JS cannot do an actual image capture, so I think a full dom export would be just as good. Any ideas would be fantastic. How do I use Javascript to loop through all the spreadsheets contained in 1 excel file? I am now at the stage where I can open the Excel file and find a value on 1 spreadsheet. Is there any way to detect if the workbook has multiple spreadsheets and then loop through all the spreadsheets to find a value? thanks! Guys, this is a script which runs on a Mac not a browser. I have created a script which transfers data from an Excel CSV file into an In-Design document and formats it, I am now just trying to take out some of the options for human error. I need the script to Open the Excel file which has been selected by dialog box and then save it to the desktop as a csv file. I thought this bit would be simple, but I cannot get the file to even open. Help please, Nick Referring to following link, I would like to determine the link for "In-Depth.xls", based on following coding, I find related information for Excel.png, does anyone have any suggestions on how to determine the URL for Excel file?
