Content coming as {table0}

[Ramakishore]

Hi Guys,

After referring the latest Js file I am not able to export any of my content. Exported content is coming as {table0} in excel sheet. Could you please let me know the correct JS reference ?

Regards, Rama

In src/jquery.table2excel.js change: txtArea1.document.write(fullTemplate) to txtArea1.document.write(e.format(fullTemplate,e.ctx))

that worked for me.

Looks like you're referring to line 109. If so, I just did a hot commit to master to update that. Need to re-generate minified version still though. Will close after I do that and someone confirms the fix.

I'm having this kind of error in IE :|

[avinav]

Do you have the latest version? Check this file: src/jquery.table2excel.js and compare with one in repository. line 109 should be txtArea1.document.write(e.format(fullTemplate, e.ctx));

This fix for my problem on IE 11: insert a new line fullTemplate = e.format(fullTemplate, e.ctx); after if (typeof Blob !== "undefined") { (line 99)

[xenon75]

i have problem too. solved as JulH said, insert new line

if (typeof Blob !== "undefined") { //use blobs if we can
fullTemplate = e.format(fullTemplate, e.ctx); // <<< insert this line!!! fullTemplate = [fullTemplate]; //convert to array var blob1 = new Blob(fullTemplate, { type: "text/html" }); window.navigator.msSaveBlob(blob1, getFileName(e.settings)); } else { ..... }

excel extention name 'xlsx' worked not for me so, i rewrite xlsx to xls

function getFileName(settings) { return (settings.filename ? settings.filename : "table2excel") + ".xls"; // <-- change xlsx to xls }

Anyone knows how to fix the {table0} for worksheet name?

This problem still persist???

I have the latest version of table2excel installed, but have the same problem. It does work in both Chrome and Firefox, but I get the same {table0} in IE 11. Does anyone know what to do?

[gioce90]

Yes, I have fixed this, now you can use IE10 and 11... but you have to download the .js file from src folder... not the dist folder ;)

[FamkeSC]

When I do that, my whole page freezes when I click the download button.

Could it have something to do with the jQueryversion I'm using? It's version 2.1.4

[gioce90]

can you debug the src/jquery.table2excel.js file?

[FamkeSC]

I can't, the page freezes before any error messages pop up.

When I use an older version of table2excel, it works in Chrome and Firefox, but not in Internet Explorer. The older version I use has this part (I've understood that that is the most important part?):

        if (typeof msie !== "undefined" && msie > 0 || !!navigator.userAgent.match(/Trident.*rv\:11\./))      // If Internet Explorer
        {
            if (typeof Blob !== "undefined") {
                //use blobs if we can
                fullTemplate = [fullTemplate];
                //convert to array
                var blob1 = new Blob(fullTemplate, { type: "text/html" });
                window.navigator.msSaveBlob(blob1, getFileName(e.settings) );

I fixed the bug by using an older version of Table2Excel (I'm not sure anymore where I found it), and, as it says above, editing the if (typeOf blob !== "undefined")-part. I have no idea why that did not work before, but hey, it works now! My screen won't freeze because I'm not using the newer version, and it does work in Internet Explorer.

This is the code I used:

//table2excel.js
;(function ( $, window, document, undefined ) {
    var pluginName = "table2excel",

    defaults = {
        exclude: ".noExl",
                name: "Table2Excel"
    };

    // The actual plugin constructor
    function Plugin ( element, options ) {
            this.element = element;
            // jQuery has an extend method which merges the contents of two or
            // more objects, storing the result in the first object. The first object
            // is generally empty as we don't want to alter the default options for
            // future instances of the plugin
            //
            this.settings = $.extend( {}, defaults, options );
            this._defaults = defaults;
            this._name = pluginName;
            this.init();
    }

    Plugin.prototype = {
        init: function () {
            var e = this;

            var utf8Heading = "<meta http-equiv=\"content-type\" content=\"application/vnd.ms-excel; charset=UTF-8\">";
            e.template = {
                head: "<html xmlns:o=\"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" xmlns:x=\"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40\">" + utf8Heading + "<head><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml><x:ExcelWorkbook><x:ExcelWorksheets>",
                sheet: {
                    head: "<x:ExcelWorksheet><x:Name>",
                    tail: "</x:Name><x:WorksheetOptions><x:DisplayGridlines/></x:WorksheetOptions></x:ExcelWorksheet>"
                },
                mid: "</x:ExcelWorksheets></x:ExcelWorkbook></xml><![endif]--></head><body>",
                table: {
                    head: "<table>",
                    tail: "</table>"
                },
                foot: "</body></html>"
            };

            e.tableRows = [];

            // get contents of table except for exclude
            $(e.element).each( function(i,o) {
                var tempRows = "";
                $(o).find("tr").not(e.settings.exclude).each(function (i,o) {
                    tempRows += "<tr>" + $(o).html() + "</tr>";
                });
                e.tableRows.push(tempRows);
            });

            e.tableToExcel(e.tableRows, e.settings.name, e.settings.sheetName);

This works with IE11.... Have you tried with IE 9 and 10?
