Hello!

 

I have been set to do some research for my company regarding an upcoming website.

We need to have a website that contains several excel spreadsheet with formulas.

We want our users to open up the excel sheet in their browsers, fill out the actual cells and then click on a save button, who temporary store the data. We also want a “send” button that actually send the sheet to an e-mail account, and then clear out the fields in the sheet so it`s ready for use next time.

Our point is that the users will not have to upload and save the sheets to their own computers. We want it to be done directly into the browser.

 

I`ve already built a website (html/css) that allows the users to upload the sheets/docs, but this is not good enough. So that`s why I`m asking for some advice

Is this possible to do?

Do I have to use mysql- php scripts?

 

Thanks in advance

Google Docs:

• Open a custom spreadsheet - Check.
  
• Fill in your custom fields - Check.
  
• Save the document (Local and Server side) - Check.
  
• Share the document via email - Check.
  

 

Or...

 

Yep, using something like PHP & MySQL. Far from basic though, if it has to be spreadsheets, probably a quite expensive custom app.

 

Goodluck,

I would advice Google Docs ass well, you can also use the Google Drive now!

Don't know if you can stick your website to your Google Drive, but you can at least store your files there.

 

Cheers
