The actual spreadsheet? It won't work without the engine, if they don't have a program that can handle Excel documents.

Seems PHP can read an Excel spreadsheet, and print its content (e.g. as an HTML table) on a web page.

Yeah, but can it also do the calculations?

Cool!

I don't know anything about Excel. I've just learnt how to create graphs from a table with the spreadsheet program I actually use.
