Hi,

I am trying to output to excel using

Code: Select all

header("Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel");
And it works fine on my local web, but does not work on the production web server (that I am not allowed to change). The problem is with session_start(). If I have this in the page it will not work on the prod server, and this is what I am using to pass the data over. I was hoping someone had any ideas of why session_start does not work or know of another way to pass the data. The page is called via link so not able to post the data.

TIA

any errors related to session-start()?

have you contacted the server admins about it?
