Question

How do I change the name of file while exporting data to Excel?

Answer 1

You can't do this with client-side JavaScript, you need to set the response header...

.NET

Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline;filename=filename.xls")

Or PHP

$filename = 'somehting.xls';

header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'.$filename.'"');
