csv files and xcel file issues

Open danbuntu opened this issue 10 years ago • 5 comments

When exporting as a csv the file format .csv isn't appended to the downloaded file.

When opening the excel file downloaded in office 2013 I get the following message:

The file format and extension of download.xls don't match. the file could be corrupted or unsafe.

also is would great to have an option to name the downloaded files. So for example you could have 'mydata-10-09-2014.csv'

Same issue here, using Chrome v36 in Windows 7.

I guess this could easly be implemented with the new html5 download attribute. The feature is fully compatible with Chrome.
