Hi everyone and thanks for taking the time to read this,

I am currently a beginner at html and need some knowledge,expertise, and some coding from professionals in how I should go about doing this project.

What I am trying to basically do is, incorporate a search page(html) that when a user enters a specific criteria, it redirects them to another html page with a table based off what they are trying to search for. This part I can sort of figure out myself, but the problem I am having currently is that the information that it is going to try to grab is from Excel.

I have done a little research and found [this][1] useful link on how to convert the Excel data into html.

I would appreciate any help on putting all this together.

Thanks for reading again.

Apparently PHP is able to read Excel files, I don't know the details but see http://devzone.zend.com/27/reading-and-wri...heets-with-php/

That one seems to require MSIE with ActiveX enabled, so I advice against using it.
