dhtmlxSpreadsheet is based on our dhtmlxGrid JavaScript
component and supports the most essential features for displaying and formatting
tabular data. Offering the basic Excel-like functionality, it allows you to
embed a simple spreadsheet anywhere on a web page and work with the tabular data
in a familiar way.
Easy Initialization and Database Binding
Adding a spreadsheet on a page can't be easier. dhtmlxSpreadsheet comes with an
installer that helps you configure database settings and create a necessary
database structure.
When the database is configured, all you need is to add just one line of code,
for example:
<script src="./dhtmlx/spreadsheet.php?sheet=price_report"></script>
This code generates dhtmlxSpreadsheet on a web page, and you get a nice-looking
table view to organize your data. You can fill in and edit your spreadsheets
online right in the browser. While you enjoy the desktop-like user experience,
dhtmlxSpreadsheet saves all your changes to the server side and updates the
database on the fly.
Basic Cell Formatting and Math Functions
With basic formatting capabilities of dhtmlxSpreadsheet, you can change text
color, cell background, set text align, rename column headings, etc. Once
resized, columns will preserve their state even if you leave the page and visit
it later. You can also make your spreadsheets read-only for other users.
dhtmlxSpreadsheet supports a large set of functions allowing the user to perform
different mathematical operations on cell contents. The server-side
impementation ensures accurate and precise mathematical calculations, which can
be applied to a cell or group of cells. Version 2.0 also supports absolute
references in formulas (e.g. $A$1).
Export to PDF and Excel
dhtmlxSpreadsheet has built-in export to PDF and Excel feature, so you can
quickly convert your spreadsheet into necessary format and print it. You can
also use Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V to copy and paste a cell or selected block of cells from
dhtmlxSpreadsheet to the Excel document, and vice-versa.
