I am not a programmer, I also wanted to open the excel file in web browser.
I found a way to open the excel file in browser , just we need to open existing or new file and while saving save it to one of the web format(.mht,.mhtml,.htm or .html) by this way the file becomes non-editable and can only be viewed.
The advantage is that it executes more faster than excel, and disadvantages are many as we cannot edit the file.

As Valerio Cassano suggests you may be able to get something working yourself. But it depends on how much editing you need and how complex your spreadsheets are.
To read out the data from an Excel File you can use a .Net component like EPPlus. It is quite fast and easy to use and lets you extract most of the data you need easily.
But to make the data visible and editable in a web page you need something more. There are some web (HTML/JS-based) components that lets you display tabular data in something that looks like Excel. Check out Handsontable for instance. Using this together with EPPlus you should be able to read out the data from an Excel file, display it in a web page with some editing possible, and finally you would be able to submit those data back to the server and generate a new Excel file using EPPlus again.
It will require some coding, but it is absolutely doable.
Now, this will probably not support formulas and not figures/charts, but as long as your files only contain data and simple formatting you should be fine.
