PHPExcel - How to set a url

Question

I am isung PHPExcel and have a URL in a string. When doing:

$url = \'http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.phymed.2005.11.003\'
$xls = new PHPExcel();
$xls->setActiveSh         


        

Answer 1

I have found the solution, somehow the url I had was not recognized by excel.

$url = str_replace('http://', '', $link);
$xls->getActiveSheet()->getCellByColumnAndRow(1,2)->getHyperlink()->setUrl('http://www.'.$url);

And now it works. Hope this will help.
