Question

Here is my code:

if($_POST['format'] == "csv")
{
Line 174 -> $objWriter = new PHPExcel_IOFactory::createWriter($objPHPExcel, 'CSV');
         $objWriter->save($FNAME);

} else {
         $objWriter = new PHPExcel_Writer_Excel2007($objPHPExcel);
         $objWriter->save($FNAME);
}

I am getting parse error: “( ! ) Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_VARIABLE or '$' in B:\wamp\www\SuperPages\action.php on line 174” but I can’t see anything wrong.”

Answer 1

Remove “new”. The createWriter() is static method.

$objWriter = PHPExcel_IOFactory::createWriter($objPHPExcel, 'CSV');
