Need help exporting data to CSV, Excel and XML

[eluser]geshan[/eluser]
Dear All,
I'm working on something and I need to export the results of a query (table mainly) to .CSV,.xls and .xml (.pdf) also ok. So please help me with it how do I do it in CI?

$this->dbutil->csv_from_result($db_result) and $this->dbutil->xml_from_result($db_result).

To xsl seems a little strange as it is a transforming file.

[eluser]Seppo[/eluser]
xls, not xsl... That means excel...
If you want excel to open it, you can use an HTML table... but if you want a real XLS the thing gets harder... You can search for some class, like this one, for example

ok my mistake

Derek Allard, http://www.derekallard.com , has created a wonderful plug-in to export as Excel file.

Pretty certain he has developed one for XML as well
