Web embeded Excel spreadsheet does not work properly on mobile devices

Question

I am trying to use Excel spreadsheet on my website. I used provided JavaScript to embed it. So far it works good when you use that spreadsheet using Internet Explorer or Chrome on PC. But when it comes to use it on my Android or Windows Phone it does not work. When I am trying to edit cell value, cell phone's keyboard does not show up automatically.

The thing is that Microsoft's script put spread sheet's cell in <div> tag and cell phone's browsers do not recognize it as something for entering a text.

Please help me to fix the problem

Answer 1

I did some tests on the Microsoft Lumia550 and it does not work properly on that device.

The action bar is complete gone.

I also did a test on a cheap android  tablet Archos 70c Xenon -70 euro, which runs on Android 5.1. Lollipop, in one word fantastic.  I use it to recalculate a couple of sheets on a fly. It was a complicated sheet with a lot of if and if-and statements and it worked on a fly  in one word fantastic.  Amazing it works on Google Android and it fails on Microsofts own product.
