problem with excel_reader2.php

[GoogleCodeExporter]

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 / 
home/ach/public_html/01_www/php-excel-reader-2.21/excel_reader2.php on line 916

Again here.

My problem was that the FULL path to the file was too long.
In my case, files are always in the same folder [xls/].
I take the FULL path Explode it and take the last token.

$file="/home/user/main/xls/file.xls"; 
$tokens=explode('/',$file);
$the_file=array_pop($tokens);
echo $the_file;

It'd give us
file.xls

correct the line 916 : $this-> _ole OLERead = & new ();
 by                  : $this->_ole = new OLERead();

to solve line 916: $this->_ole =& new OLERead();  (it's Deprecated "=&" , put 
only "=") 
          $this->_ole = new OLERead();

to solve line 844 (and other with split like):   $parts = split(";",$format); 
Split it's been Deprecated use instead "explode":$parts = explode(";",$format);
