I have the following view file
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<table border="1" align="center">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>TransactionDate</th>
<th>SettlementRefNo</th>
<th>TransactionRefNo</th>
<th>CustomerName</th>
<th>TransactionAmount</th>
<th>TDR</th>
<th>ServiceTax</th>
<th>FinalSettledAmount</th>
<th>MerchantName</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<?php foreach ($success as $row): ?>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $row['trans_date'];?></td>
<td><?php echo $row['settlement_refNo'];?></td>
<td><?php echo $row['shmart_refID'];?></td>
<td><?php echo $row['customer_name'];?></td>
<td><?php echo $row['trans_amount'];?></td>
<td><?php echo $row['tdr_amount'];?></td>
<td><?php echo $row['serviceTax_amount'];?></td>
<td><?php echo $row['final_settled_amount'];?></td>
<td><?php echo $row['username'];?></td>
</tr>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</tbody>
</table>
</body>
</html>
This is the controller
$settlement_processed_data['success'] = $this->report_generation_model->get_processed_data();
$myFile = FCPATH."admin_process_settlement_files/".date('d-M-Y').".xls";
$stringTransData = $this->parser->parse('settlement_processed_xls', $settlement_processed_data, true);
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die("can't open file");
fwrite($fh, $stringTransData);
fclose($fh);
$data = file_get_contents("/var/www/html/testingserv/admin/admin_process_settlement_files/".date('d-M-Y').".xls");
$name="settlements.xls";
force_download($name, $data);
unlink($myFile);
What the controller does is,Get the array from the database , and load it into the view and parse the contents,but the content which is been passed has
���������������� ���������������� ���������������� ���������������� ���������������� ���������������� ���������������� ���������������� ���������������� ����������� ���� �������� ����
and the resulting xls file which is generated is having the in the middle of the excel file.Why is this happening?
