Newbie drop-down lists + db mysql

[santille]

Hi all,

I'm a newbie in PHP and try to optimize a script with drop-down lists.
Please find attached the .zip with files.
There are :
- files .sql to create the tables and one to fill the tables (emp_empdetail.sql)
- report.php to process
- showreport1.php to display results
- exemple_he_1.xls, the file given to me to fill the database.

My question is : how to proceed to do that from the .xls file?

You can preview a demo at http://www.fang.ch/pathos/report.php.

Thanks for your coorperation,

Sebastien
