Description

```
after several months without problems

an error appears on the function: OLERead ()

"Deprecated: Assigning The return value of new by reference is deprecated in /
home/ach/public_html/01_www/googlemaps/admin/lib/Excel/reader.php on line 916
The filename .. / .. / gmaps / gmaps.xls is Not readable "

Line 916: $ this-> _ole OLERead = & new ();

No longer works on php 5.2.11 (production server) and 5.3.2-2 (test server) on
two different servers

same error with the example for download with the error:

"Deprecated: Assigning The return value of new by reference is deprecated in /

Research direction

Start with reader.php or excel_reader2.php at lines 916 and 844, and review the attached reader.php alongside the reported PHP 5.2.11 and 5.3.2-2 errors. Confirm the deprecated notices and the unreadable-file failure, then verify that the example Excel file works without those errors.
