Hello Friends,
Can someone please tell me if there is a way to convert an excel spreadsheet to Java Script. I am brand new to scripting and this project is way over my head, but I wondered if there might be a resource out there or a tutorial(s) on this topic.
Many thanks in advance for your help.

What you are asking is "is there any way to convert a collection of structured data into an interpreted scripting language", so I wonder if you've maybe made ka mistake with your post. Perhaps you could give us an example of what sort of output you are looking for?

Hi Paul,
Yes, what I have is a one sheet excel document which is used to calculate a sum. There are only three fields where the user needs to enter figures into. The sheet then produces and end result. I have learned that in order for this to be placed into HTML it must first be written in Java Script.
I could email you the doc for you to look at if you are willing.

Thank you very much for responding to me, I appreciate the help.

Hi,

Welcome to JavaRanch!

Note that Java and JavaScript are two entirely separate animals. We do actually have one forum in which JavaScript is on-topic: our HTML and JavaScript forum. I'm going to move this thread there where you'll get more help.

basic idea, there are more efficient ways of doing it, but this works:
