Problem loading Spreadsheet ( ODS )

Hey All -

I created an ODS Template file to test this with ( I want to use this on a massive multi-page spreadsheet, but I figure I'll start with something simple. )
It's named testing.ods.

the file contains the following:
A1 : [onshow.x]
B1 : [a.val1]
C1 : the following function:  =if( left(a1,1) = "[", "", A1+B1 )
A2 : [onshow.y]
B2 : [a.val2]
C2 : the following function: =if( left(a2,1) = "[", "", A1+B1 )
A3 : the following function: =sum( a1:a2 )
B3 : the following function: =sum( b1:b2 )
C3 : the following function: =sum( c1:c2 )

the function stuff works fine ( if I put values in a1 - b2, the sums and if functions create the proper values ).

The problem happens when I get the result_testing.ods file, it doesn't open up in Calc, it tries to open up Math.  and its Blank.

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong in the TBS code, or if something is wrong with the testing.ods file itself.

here is the PHP code I'm testing with:


10 include_once($RootPath."/tbs/tbs_class.php");
11 include_once($RootPath."/tbs/plugins/tbs_plugin_opentbs.php");
12
13 $TBS = new clsTinyButStrong;
14 $TBS->Plugin(TBS_INSTALL, OPENTBS_PLUGIN);
15 //$TBS->SetOption( 'n', TBS_OUTPUT );
16
17 $template = $RootPath."/xl-forms/testing.ods";
18
19 $x = 5;
20 $y = 11;
21
22 $xl[0]['val1'] = 10;
23 $xl[0]['val2'] = 16;
24
25 $TBS->LoadTemplate($template);
26 $TBS->MergeBlock('a', $xl );
27
28 $file = str_replace( '.ods', '_'.date( 'Y-m-d' ).'.ods', $template );
29
30 //$TBS->PlugIn( OPENTBS_DEBUG_INFO, true );
31 //$TBS->PlugIn( OPENTBS_DEBUG_XML_CURRENT );
32 //$TBS->PlugIn( OPENTBS_DEBUG_XML_SHOW );
33
34 $TBS->Show( TBS_NOTHING );
35 file_put_contents( $RootPath."/attachments/".$dbname."/invoicing/testing_result.ods", $TBS->Source );
36 echo "<a href=\"$domain/attachments/$dbname/invoicing/testing_result.ods\" target=_BLANK>$lang[download]</a>";

I have to use the file_put_contents, because of the way our downloading works, if I don't, when I have the show command, all I get is mime encoded display stuff ( ? and other odd characters ).

when I run the different debug options, I get the following:
OPENTBS_DEBUG_INFO:

Any ideas??

Thanks in Advance

Re: Problem loading Spreadsheet ( ODS )

Hi Chris,

You have to replace :
$TBS->Show( TBS_NOTHING );
With :
$TBS->Show(OPENTBS_STRING);

Using TBS_NOTHING, only the last sub-file is kept in $TBS->Source. That is probably why your output file is unvalid.

If you use $TBS->Show(OPENTBS_FILE, $file_name); then it should do the same and it costs less memory.
With OPENTBS_FILE, only modified sub-file are saved in memory, other sub-file are taken directly from the template file.
