This tutorial teaches you how to convert html content in an easy way to Microsoft Word document using php

The tutorial is beneficial to as many who may have designed an application that requires downloading some content in Microsoft Word format.

There are two main pages created in this tutorial namely the index.php page which is made up of html form and the export.php page which contains the php codes that converts the data sent from the index.php page into a Microsoft Word document.

PHP SCRIPT TO DO THE CONVERSION

<?php
// Check to be sure that the only request we can process is a POST REQUEST
if(isset($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"]) && strip_tags($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"]) == strip_tags("POST"))
{
	if(isset($_POST['create_ms_word']))
	{
		// If all fields in index.php page are filled, procceed to process the data
		if(isset($_POST['topic']) && !empty($_POST['topic']) && isset($_POST['content']) && !empty($_POST['content'])) 
		{	
			// Below are data sent from the index.php page
			$output ="
				<h1>".$_POST['topic']."</h1>
				<p>".nl2br($_POST['content'])."</p>
			";
			
			$filename = date("d-m-Y").'.doc'; // This is the name of our MS Word file that will be created
			
			header("Cache-Control: ");// leave blank to avoid IE errors 
            @header("Pragma: ");// leave blank to avoid IE errors 
			header("Expires: 0");
			header("Content-Type: application/vnd.msword"); // Creates the MS Word Document
			header("content-disposition: attachment;filename=".$filename); // Downloads the document
			
			echo "<html>"; // Starts HTML 
			echo $output; // The body content of our MS Word Document goes in here
			echo "</html>"; // Ends the HTML
			
		}
		else
		{
			// If all fields in index.php page are not filled, alert an error message below
			echo "<script>alert('Please fill in all the required fields')</script>"; 
			echo "<script>window.location='index.php'</script>";
		}
	}
	else
	{
		die('Sorry, no proper data was passed');
	}
}
else 
{
	// Deny access if the request brought to this page is not a POST REQUEST
	die('Access Denied');
}
