    Is it possible to convert HTML with external CSS to DOCX ?

    <?php
require_once 'phpdocx-trial-pro-5.5/classes/CreateDocx.inc';
$docx = new CreateDocx();
$html='http://www.csszengarden.com/215/';
$docx->embedHTML($html, array('isFile' => true));
$docx->createDocx('csszengarden-215');
?>

    The external CSS would be http://www.csszengarden.com/215/215.css?v=8may2013

    Thanks

    I tried giving :

    $docx->importStyles('http://www.csszengarden.com/215/215.css?v=8may2013', 'merge', array('crazyStyle'));

    but I get this when running it in CLI :

    FATAL - Error while opening the Style Template: please, check the path

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'Error while opening the Style Template: please, check the path' in /home/username/webapps/domain/phpdocx-trial-pro-5.5/classes/AutoLoader.inc(62) : eval()'d code:55

    Hello,

    The importStyles method isn't for CSS styles but Word, you need to use the embedHtml method.

    About your error, it seems you didn't copy the whole content of the library.

    Regards.

    I tried doing

    $html='http://www.csszengarden.com/215/';

$docx->embedHTML($html, array('isFile' => true));

$docx->embedHTML("http://www.csszengarden.com/215/215.css?v=8may2013", array('isFile' => true));

    but the resultant DOCX file contains only the text.

    Hello,

    As you're using a trial package, please refer to the included examples and the available documentation. As the trial is crypted it can't be debugged.
