For example:
Consider a chart in cell F11 of sheet1 in workbook1. How to select the chart area in sheet1 and save it as an interactive web page. The “Illustration 2” in the following link shows how to save a excel chart as interactive web page manually. I want to achieve the same in Perl programming.

    You can produce Excel 2000 style interactive web pages with Perl using Spreadsheet::WriteExcelXML.

    See this example that I posted in Perlmonks in 2005, which is also included in the examples directory of the Spreadsheet::WriteExcelXML distro.

    However, there are some major caveats:

    • Spreadsheet::WriteExcelXML doesn’t support charts (they weren’t supported in the Spreadsheet XML format).
    • These interactive webpages require an “Office 2003 Office Web Components” plugin which is available for Internet Explorer only.
    • Interactive web pages aren’t supported by Excel 2007 or later. It is a dead technology.

    So, it is probably best looking for some other way to achieve what you want to do.
