Excel Export Script works on IE7+ Mozilla & Chrome ===========================================================

function fnExcelReport()
{
  var tab_text="";
  var textRange; var j=0;
  tab = document.getElementById('headerTable'); // id of table


  for(j = 0 ; j < tab.rows.length ; j++)
  {
    tab_text=tab_text+tab.rows[j].innerHTML+"";
    //tab_text=tab_text+"";
  }

  tab_text=tab_text+"";
  tab_text= tab_text.replace(/]*>|<\/A>/g, "");//remove if u want links in your table
  tab_text= tab_text.replace(/]*>/gi,""); // remove if u want images in your table
  tab_text= tab_text.replace(/]*>|<\/input>/gi, ""); // reomves input params

  var ua = window.navigator.userAgent;
  var msie = ua.indexOf("MSIE ");

  if (msie > 0 || !!navigator.userAgent.match(/Trident.*rv\:11\./))      // If Internet Explorer
  {
    txtArea1.document.open("txt/html","replace");
    txtArea1.document.write(tab_text);
    txtArea1.document.close();
    txtArea1.focus();
    sa=txtArea1.document.execCommand("SaveAs",true,"Say Thanks to Sumit.xls");
  }
  else                 //other browser not tested on IE 11
  sa = window.open('data:application/vnd.ms-excel,' + encodeURIComponent(tab_text));


  return (sa);
}
