Need option for fileName to be saved

[Nivethar92]

When i download the file the file name is in encoded form. I dont want it to be encoded. I need to enter the filename manually or during intialisation

Hi

Greetings!! I found the answer....

Try This….

Html:

Initialization (Jquery):

$(".excel").click(function () { $(".table").dataTable().fnDestroy(); $('#datatable').tableExport({ type: 'excel', escape: 'false', tableName: 'ResolutionReport'

        });

In tableExporter.js var base64data = "base64," + $.base64.encode(excelFile); // window.open('data:application/vnd.ms-'+defaults.type+';filename=exportData.doc;' + base64data); Instead of this add below lines

document.getElementById("dlink").href = 'data:application/vnd.ms-' + defaults.type + ';filename=exportData.doc;' + base64data; document.getElementById("dlink").download = defaults.tableName.toString() + '.xls'; document.getElementById("dlink").click();

Thanks,

Regards, Nivetha Rajendran.

The last line: document.getElementById("dlink").click(); makes the dialog appears twice. Had to comment it out. All the same, thanks a million. :)

Thanks for this workaround. From the example on the main page to this workaround I just had to add the link to the page and then it worked.

So my html looked like this (a snipped of it anyway)

<a id="dlink" style="display: none;"></a>
<div class="btn-group">
    <button class="btn btn-warning btn-sm" id="exportButton">Export table</button>
</div>

And in my js file I did leave in the .click(); line as well

Hi! Just change

window.open('data:application/vnd.ms-'+defaults.type+';filename=exportData.doc;' + base64data);

to

$('<a style="display:none" href="data:application/vnd.ms-'+defaults.type+';filename=exportData.doc;'+base64data+'" download="'+defaults.tableName.toString()+'.xls"><span></span></a>').appendTo(document.body).find('span').trigger("click").parent().remove();

in tableExport.jquery.json will solve the problem
